Image to DXF Converter

Any picture of a drawing — a scan, a photo of a sketch, an exported plan — into a real DXF with editable polylines. Drop it below; the DXF is seconds away.

How to convert image to DXF

Upload your image

Drop your image on the converter, click to browse, or paste a screenshot with Ctrl+V.

We trace the lines

Whatever format arrives is normalized to one clean black-and-white working image first, so every source converges on the same trace quality.

Download a real DXF

You get an R2000 ASCII DXF with editable LWPOLYLINE geometry — the open CAD exchange format — editable geometry, ready to draft on, not a picture to trace again.

What you get: lines, not pictures

A floor plan with solid walls, furniture and text — and the CAD geometry this converter produces from it. Walls keep both faces, every thin line is a single editable polyline, and labels become real editable text.

Example floor plan image before conversion — Input: raster image (solid walls, thin furniture lines, text)

Editable DXF vector drawing produced by the converter — Output: editable DXF polylines (walls outlined, lines centerlined)

About image to DXF conversion

This page accepts every format the site supports and produces the same thing from all of them: an R2000 ASCII DXF of editable polylines. DXF is the common tongue of CAD and fabrication — laser cutters, plasma tables, CNC routers, vinyl cutters and every CAD package read it — which is why it is worth having one page that does not care what you upload.

What the source format changes is the quality ceiling, not the process. PNG, BMP, TIFF and GIF are lossless and trace exactly as scanned. JPG, WEBP and AVIF are lossy and need their compression halos thresholded away first — recoverable, but a hairline the codec already erased is gone for good. SVG is already vector and is rendered at 300 DPI before re-vectorizing, which sidesteps the gradients and webfonts that break direct importers. ICO is a special case: tiny by design, useful mainly at 256×256. PDF is the notable absence — there is no PDF parser here at all, so export the page as PNG or TIFF at 300 DPI first.

Frequently asked questions

Which image formats can I convert to DXF?

PNG, JPG, JPEG, WEBP, GIF, BMP, TIFF, TIF, AVIF, SVG and ICO — everything the pipeline supports, all on this one page. Each also has a dedicated page with format-specific guidance if you want the detail.

Can I convert a PDF to DXF here?

No. There is no PDF parser in the pipeline, and pretending otherwise would just waste your upload. If the PDF holds vector geometry, your CAD's own PDF import beats any raster trace; if it is a scanned page, export it to PNG or TIFF at 300 DPI and convert that.

Which format gives the best result?

Lossless ones. PNG, BMP and TIFF trace exactly as captured. JPG, WEBP and AVIF are lossy and need their compression halos removed first, which works but cannot restore lines the codec already destroyed. Scan at 300 DPI and save lossless where you can.

How are solid areas different from thin lines?

The tracer measures ink thickness. Thin lines become one centerline polyline each — the way a drafter would redraw them. Solid regions are traced along both real edges, so a filled wall or glyph keeps its boundaries instead of collapsing to a single stroke.

Is it free, and are my files kept?

Free with no account, no watermark and no limit on conversions; files up to 100 MB each. Uploads and results are retained so failed conversions can be debugged, trace quality improved and results re-downloaded. They are never sold or shared, and will be deleted on request.
