AutoCAD Tools
DWG to PDF API Overview
Convert AutoCAD DWG/DWGX drawings to high‑quality PDF for review, sharing, and archiving. Select model or paper space (or provide a custom space), export layers as needed, and auto‑fit content to the page. Control page size and orientation or specify exact width/height for consistent results, and choose an output color space tuned for PDF. Designed for automation, the API produces predictable output across varied drawings and layouts without requiring desktop tools.
