  AutoCAD DXF - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
AutoCAD DXF (Drawing Interchange Format, or Drawing Exchange Format) is a CAD data file format, developed by Autodesk as their solution for enabling data interoperability between AutoCAD and other programs.
DXF was originally introduced in December 1982 as part of AutoCAD 1.0, and was intended to provide an exact representation of the data in the AutoCAD native file format, DWG (Drawing), for which Autodesk did (and does) not publish specifications.
Other object types, including AutoCAD 2006's dynamic blocks, and all of the objects specific to the vertical-market versions of AutoCAD, are partially documented, but not at a sufficient level to allow other developers to support them.

 DXF revision 12   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
Since the AutoCAD drawing database (.dwg file) is written in a compact format that changes significantly as new features are added to AutoCAD, we do not document its format and do not recommend that you attempt to write programs to read it directly.
All implementations of AutoCAD accept this format and are able to convert it to and from their internal drawing file representation.
The appearance of values in the DXF file is not affected by the setting of the UNITS command: coordinates are always represented as decimal (or possibly scientific notation if very large) numbers, and angles are always represented in decimal degrees with zero degrees to the east of origin.

Unlike ASCII DXF files, which entail a trade-off between size and floating-point accuracy, binary DXF files preserve all of the accuracy in the drawing database.
AutoCAD Release 10 is the first version to support this form of DXF file; it cannot be read by older versions.

 Supported File Formats - Convert and view CAD files: DXF, GDS-II, Gerber, CIF, PostScript, ...
DXF files can be either ASCII or binary formats.
Essentially a DXF file is composed of pairs of codes and associated values.
Using these group code and value pairs, a DXF file is organized into sections, which are composed of records, which in turn are composed of a group code and a data item.

 AutoCAD DXF: Summary from the Encyclopedia of Graphics File Formats
Although DXF was developed to represent the data used in a CAD program, it is used by many programs as a "least common denominator" format for the exchange of many different types of data, most commonly vector-oriented information but also text and 3D polygons.
One curious aspect of DXF is that it does not contain a color palette, yet most objects in a DXF file can be assigned a distinct color value with group code 62.
AutoCAD now sets a default RGB color for each ACI when it appears onscreen, but these are not stored in the DXF file.

Similarly the engineering properties displayed on the converted DXF file correspond to the Revision that was active while using the "Export DXF File…" command.

The AutoCAD DXF geometry export converter writes out the scene database as either 3-point or 4-point polygons using the 3DFACE or POLYFACE MESH entities.
This creates a more compact DXF file and can be read in much faster than a file written using the 3D FACE entity.
However, most DXF reader programs can read this format so it might be necessary to use this option if a DXF reader cannot understand the Polyface Mesh format.
