X3D to DWG
Please find below the list of our other useful resources related to X3D and DWG interoperability and exchange that could help you with the X3D to DWG conversion.
X3D File
X3D (Extensible 3D) is an open source and royalty free XML based file format developed and maintained by the Web3D Consortium to store two or three dimensional models together with the other visualization data e.g. light source, viewport info, camera properties, special effects and more. The X3D file format becomes an advanced extension and actually the replacement for the original VRML (Virtual Reality Modeling Language) file format used mostly by the WEB applications. The Autoconverter and Automesher Application are our X3D file converters which allow you to import and export mesh entities from the X3D file. To optimize file size the binary X3DB file can be used instead of a default text based X3D file. The shapes in X3D files are always defined in meters therefore our X3D converters will make the necessary units conversion if required.
DWG AutoCAD File
DWG (AutoCAD Drawing) binary file format is developed by Autodesk company but it's supported also in other software packages e.g. ZWCAD, BricsCAD and IntelliCAD. Indeed DWG files are the standard now in the overall CAD industry. To support DWG files conversion into other 3D file formats we have developed the Automesher Application which runs as a plugin in your favorite DWG editor. It means that you need to have your DWG drawing editor installed first before using our software to convert to or from DWG file format.
