Aspose.CAD for .NET is a high-performance API to render, manipulate, and convert CAD and BIM files. This .NET AutoCAD API includes features that enable developers to work with different elements of the CAD drawings. Loaded with excellent CAD file conversion capabilities, Aspose.CAD for .NET allows converting AutoCAD files to multiple formats, such as DWG to PDF, DWG to JPEG, DXF to PDF, and many more. You can optimize the AutoCAD processing workflow using the .NET API and integrate the immaculate rendering abilities into your document processing apps in .NET.
The .NET AutoCAD processing and conversion API offers enhanced memory management and multi-thread file processing. That makes it easy to convert or export files in bulk instead of working on one file at a time. The conversion process is fully customizable and supports tracking the file conversion with the ability to cancel the conversion if needed. It supports multiple OS, development environments, and frameworks offering a cross-platform AutoCAD file conversion experience like no other.
For setting up Aspose.CAD for .NET on your end, please check the information shared below. Please review a list of prerequisites on the System Requirements page before installing the .NET AutoCAD conversion API for a smooth user experience.
Please download the MSI installer or the DLLs directly from the downloads section to set up the AutoCAD file format conversion API for .NET. Or, you may use the NuGet package for installing the library. The Visual Studio Package Manager Console command is provided below:
Aspose.CAD for .NET high-fidelity conversion engine allows users to convert CAD drawings to PDF and popular raster images and vectors such as PNG, JPEG, GIF, BMP, EMF, and more. Automating CAD file conversions using the .NET CAD library helps make the process efficient. Developers can proficiently transform CAD file formats into PDF documents without any dependencies.
You can build feature-rich CAD converter applications on the .NET platform using the .NET AutoCAD API. Converting DWG to PDF, DWF to PDF, DGN to PDF, or DXF to PDF is simple and easy. You can apply advanced settings to the output files during the conversion process. Let’s check the following steps and sample code that highlight the conversion of DWF to PDF in .NET.
// Load the DWF file in the Image class object
using (Image image = Image.Load("sample.dwf"))
{
// Instantiate CadRasterizationOptions class object
CadRasterizationOptions dwfRasterizationOptions = new CadRasterizationOptions();
// Set page size
dwfRasterizationOptions.PageHeight = 500;
dwfRasterizationOptions.PageWidth = 500;
// Initialize PdfOptions object
PdfOptions pdfOptions = new PdfOptions();
// Set vector rasterization options
pdfOptions.VectorRasterizationOptions = dwfRasterizationOptions;
// Save PDF file
image.Save("output.pdf", pdfOptions);
}
The .NET AutoCAD processing API lets users seamlessly convert CAD drawings to raster images. Different AutoCAD file formats could be programmatically rendered and converted to JPEG, GIF, PNG, BMP, TIFF, and WEBP images within your .NET apps using the .NET AutoCAD conversion API. The information and code snippet shared below show how to convert DWG to JPEG in .NET.
//Load the DWG to export to JPEG
using (Aspose.CAD.Image image = Aspose.CAD.Image.Load("test.dwg"))
{
// Create an instance of CadRasterizationOptions
Aspose.CAD.ImageOptions.CadRasterizationOptions rasterizationOptions =
new Aspose.CAD.ImageOptions.CadRasterizationOptions();
// Set page width & height
rasterizationOptions.PageWidth = 1200;
rasterizationOptions.PageHeight = 1200;
//Set background color and object colors
rasterizationOptions.BackgroundColor = Aspose.CAD.Color.White;
rasterizationOptions.DrawType = Aspose.CAD.FileFormats.Cad.CadDrawTypeMode.UseObjectColor;
// Create an instance of JpegOption for the converted Jpeg image
ImageOptionsBase options = new Aspose.CAD.ImageOptions.JpegOptions();
// Set rasterization options for exporting to JPEG
options.VectorRasterizationOptions = rasterizationOptions;
// Save DWG to JPEG image
image.Save("Exported_image_out.jpeg", options);
}
You can similarly convert DXF or DGN files to JPEG format and to other raster images using the .NET CAD library.
