Professional 2D CAD.
Professional 2D CAD.
Built around DXF.
Open, edit, draw, dimension and export DXF files in a focused browser-based CAD workspace — fast to launch, precise to use, and ready for technical work.
No installation
No account required
Online DXF Editor
Open reference geometry and continue technical drawing in the browser.
Circle Tool
Quick previews from the CAD workspace.
Core capabilities
The tools you expect from a practical 2D CAD workspace.
DXFDraw is built around real drawing workflows: create geometry, modify it and annotate it. When your work is complete, you can export your data as DXF, PNG or ADN files and import supported files again later when needed.
2D Drawing Tools
Line, Rectangle, Circle, Arc, Polyline and Spline tools for precise browser-based drafting.
Modify Geometry
Move, Rotate, Mirror, Scale, Trim, Offset, Fillet, Chamfer and Explode with a CAD-style workflow.
Snap & Tracking
Point and edge snapping, angle locking and tracking guides help place geometry accurately.
Dimensions
Linear, Aligned, Angular, Radius and Diameter dimensions plus Leader annotations.
Hatch
Apply hatch patterns to closed regions with adjustable pattern, angle, scale and appearance.
Layers
Organize drawing entities into layers and control their visual properties from one workspace.
Image Import
Bring reference images into the drawing area and resize or position them alongside CAD geometry.
DXF & PNG Export
Export CAD geometry as DXF or create clean PNG output for documentation and communication.
Drawing Templates
Create technical title blocks and reusable drawing templates for a consistent professional output.
Native Project Files
Save editable DXFDraw project data in the native ADN format and reopen it later for continued work.
Dark CAD Workspace
A focused dark interface designed to keep drawing geometry and technical information readable.
Simple workflow
Open. Edit. Export.
No installer, no lengthy setup and no account wall. Open the application and start working.
Open your drawing
Launch DXFDraw and import a DXF file, open an ADN project or start with an empty drawing.
Work with CAD tools
Draw, trim, offset, fillet, chamfer, hatch, dimension, organize layers and refine geometry.
Export the result
Save the editable project or export supported drawing geometry back to DXF for the next stage of your workflow.
Privacy-first by design
Your CAD workflow stays focused on your device.
DXFDraw currently runs as a browser-based CAD application without an account system or cloud drawing library. Drawing files are opened and processed by the application in your browser rather than being uploaded to a DXFDraw drawing-storage service.

FAQ
Questions, answered.
Is DXFDraw free to use?
DXFDraw can be used from DXFDraw.com without any fee or membership requirement.
Do I need to install anything?
No. DXFDraw runs in a modern desktop web browser. Open the application and start drawing.
Can DXFDraw open and export DXF files?
Yes. DXFDraw supports DXF import and exports supported CAD geometry back to DXF. The native ADN project format preserves DXFDraw-specific project information for continued editing.
Which CAD tools are included?
The application includes drawing tools, Trim, Offset, Fillet, Chamfer, Explode, Hatch, Layers, Snap/Tracking, dimensions, templates, image import and more.
Are my drawings uploaded to a cloud account?
No. Your drawings are not transferred to a DXFDraw cloud storage system. Drawing import and export operations are handled through the browser application. See the Privacy Policy for current data-handling details.
Which devices are recommended?
DXFDraw is designed primarily for desktop browsers where a mouse, keyboard and larger drawing area provide the best CAD experience.
DXF guide
What is DXF?
DXF (Drawing Exchange Format) is a CAD exchange format used to move drawing data between design, engineering and manufacturing applications. It is widely used for 2D geometry and technical workflows where drawings need to travel between different software.
What is a DXF file used for?
DXF files are commonly used to exchange lines, arcs, circles, polylines, text and other CAD information between CAD, CAM, CNC, laser-cutting and fabrication workflows.
How do you open a DXF?
Use compatible CAD software or a DXF viewer. DXFDraw provides a free online DXF viewer and browser-based editing tools for supported DXF content.
DXF, DWG and converters
DXF is designed for drawing exchange, while DWG is AutoCAD's native drawing format. If you need another target format, see our DXF converter guide and DXF vs DWG comparison.
