Definition of DWG and DXF
DWG (from drawing) is a binary file format used for storing two- and
three- dimensional design data and metadata. It is the native format for
several CAD packages including AutoCAD and IntelliCAD (and its variants).
In addition, DWG is supported non-natively by many other CAD
applications.
AutoCAD DXF (Drawing Interchange Format, or Drawing Exchange Format) is a
CAD data file format developed by Autodesk for enabling data
interoperability between AutoCAD and other programs.
