Drawing File Formats-CAD
Our CAD system is Solidworks 2006, and we can open drawings in most formats with eDrawings.  Send files in .dxf or .igs (.iges) format.  We can accept Autocad files in .dwg format.  Autocad files can also be saved as .dxf files and transmitted, but this option must be user‑selected. Your may also send files as Adobe Acrobat .pdf files.  Pdf files are useful for viewing, but cannot be used in the CAD system.
