DWG to JPG Python Overview
Convert AutoCAD DWG/DWGX drawings to JPG for previews, review, and archival. Select model or paper space (or provide a custom space), export layers as needed, and control output with image resolution (DPI), explicit width/height, output color space, and JPEG quality to balance clarity and file size. Ideal for generating thumbnails and page snapshots in automated pipelines with predictable results across varied drawings and layouts without relying on desktop tools.

SpaceToConvert
Collection Default: defaultSet space type to convert.
Values: default all modelCustomSpaceToConvert
StringSet custom layout name to convert by setting it name or index. This property overrides the SpaceToConvert property.
ExportLayers
Bool Default: TrueExport AutoCAD layers.
ColorSpace
Collection Default: truecolorsSet output color space.
Values: truecolors grayscale monochromeImageResolution
Integer Default: 200Set output image resolution in dpi.
Range: 10 .. 800ImageHeight
IntegerImage height in pixels.
Range: 10 .. 20000ImageWidth
IntegerImage width in pixels.
Range: 10 .. 20000ImageQuality
Integer Default: 75Set output image quality.
Range: 10 .. 100StoreFile
Bool Default: FalseWhen the StoreFile parameter is set to True, your converted file is written to ConvertAPI’s encrypted, temporary storage and made available via a time-limited secure download URL, valid for up to 3 hours. After this period, the file is permanently deleted.
When StoreFile is set to False, conversion happens entirely in-memory. The raw file bytes are streamed back in the API response without touching disk or external storage, ensuring maximum security and zero persistence so that only you can access the content.
