A client without CAD software cannot open a DXF file. Filemorph renders a DXF drawing as PDF on your iPhone, ready for anyone to view.
DXF is a CAD interchange format that AutoCAD and similar software read natively, but a client, contractor or reviewer without CAD software has no way to open one. Filemorph renders the drawing as a PDF instead, viewable on any device with no special software.
Filemorph parses the DXF file's entities — lines, arcs, circles and text among them — and draws the 2D geometry to scale on a PDF page. This covers standard 2D drawings; 3D entities and DXF-specific features like external references are not part of the render.
In the app: Convert → To PDF.
PDF opens on any device without CAD software installed, which makes it the practical format for sharing a drawing with a client, contractor or anyone reviewing the work rather than editing it. It also gives you a fixed, printable copy for a site visit or a paper file.
Yes. Unlike web converters that upload your files to a server, Filemorph converts every file locally using Apple's frameworks. Nothing leaves your device, and it works with no internet connection. This operation is part of Filemorph Pro ($29.99/year, 7-day free trial on monthly and annual plans).
No. Filemorph renders 2D entities: lines, arcs, circles, polylines and text. 3D geometry is not part of the output.
Yes. Entities render proportionally to their coordinates in the DXF file, fit to the PDF page.
DXF to PDF is part of Filemorph Pro.
On-device, no upload. Plus 300+ more file operations.
