darkraider7 Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 I have a .cad file that I cannot open in autocad. Is there anyone here who can convert it to .dwg for me. I would greatly appreciate it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

f700es Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Either QuickCAD or AutoSketch probably. You'd think AutoDesk would make an all-in-one conversion tool for AutoCAD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMark Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 (edited) Yeah, I'm thinking it is AutoSketch as well but I just checked and I read that it used the SKD and SKF file formats initially but at some point also supported DWG and DWF. Not too sure how accurate the information is however. Could it have been BobCAD (CAD-CAM program)? OK...so I checked as to what file formats BobCAD supports and .CAD is one of them (file must be imported). So, if one could download and install a trial version of BobCAD it might be possible to import the drawing then save it to a DXF file format which can then be opened in AutoCAD. Free demo version available here...http://bobcad.com/free-cad-cam-demo-downloads/?source=DEMO_TOPNAV Edited January 17, 2018 by ReMark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
