How JPG to DXF Conversion Works

1

Upload JPG Image

Upload your JPG image file. Works best with high contrast images and clear line drawings.

2

Edge Detection

Advanced algorithms detect edges and contours in the image to identify drawable elements.

3

Vector Tracing

Image edges are traced and converted to vector paths using polylines and curves.

4

Generate DXF

Vector data is exported as DXF file compatible with AutoCAD and other CAD software.

Best Practices for Image Conversion

Optimal Image Types

  • • Line Drawings: Black and white technical drawings work best
  • • High Contrast: Clear distinction between lines and background
  • • Clean Scans: Well-lit, sharp scans without shadows
  • • Simple Geometry: Basic shapes and lines convert more accurately
  • • No Gradients: Solid colors and lines produce better results

Image Preparation Tips

  • • Increase Contrast: Use image editing to enhance line visibility
  • • Remove Noise: Clean up speckles and artifacts before conversion
  • • Crop Tightly: Remove unnecessary background areas
  • • Straight Alignment: Ensure drawing is properly oriented
  • • High Resolution: Use highest quality source images available

DXF Output & CAD Compatibility

DXF Elements Generated

  • • Polylines: Main contours and outlines from edge detection
  • • Lines: Straight edge segments and geometric elements
  • • Splines: Curved sections and smooth contours
  • • Points: Key vertices and intersection points
  • • Layers: Organized by feature type (edges, contours, etc.)

Compatible CAD Software

  • • AutoCAD: Full DXF support for all entity types
  • • SolidWorks: Import as 2D sketch for reference
  • • Fusion 360: Use as underlay for modeling
  • • FreeCAD: Open source CAD with full DXF support
  • • LibreCAD: Native DXF editing and modification
