Hello all, I have gotten a .dwf of a site we are looking at and I want to convert to a .dwg. I thought I found a way to some time ago but I can't remember where I say it. Anybody know of a way? As always TIA! :)

Probable this is a creation of smarter people! I find advices like the DWF file format may be used as a protection allowing you to send your work to others but preventing the modifications. If you find somethind please keep me (us) informed.

Oh yes, it is meant to be READ-ONLY. I thought I found something once. I'll keep looking.

Hello. . .

Yes, a program exists to pass files *. dwf to *. dwg, the program is a *. arx that lasts 15 days...

DWF is supposed to be for ACAD users to send read only files. I doubt very much a program can convert them.

Maybe SpeedCAD can give us a link so that we can check it out for ourselves.

Download from here (http://www.intelcad.com/pages/dwfin/setup_dwfin2.exe)

The converter supports all DWF entity types exported by R14 and R15 (Acad2000) including ellipses, elliptical arcs and true type fonts emitted by AutoCAD 2000 ePlot (plot to DWF). It also has DWF preview built in.

Note: the file ICDWFIN.ARX is the one that you should load.

Mr T will be impressed

You can also print it to file then use Scan2CAD
