    EXDXF-Pro

    EXDXF-Pro

    Baby Universe Inc.

    EXDXF-Pro is an ideal DXF convert plug-in for Adobe Illustrator (AI). I can solve data compatibility problems between CAD software and AI. Specific functions include an "Export function" that outputs DXF data from AI and an "Import function" that opens DXF files in AI. Recently, CAD software is offered by many manufacturers, and the software is developed to be compatible with other CAD software. In particular, the file format uses the "dxf" extension to ensure compatibility in the exchange of data between CAD software and to facilitate the exchange of data between designers. CAD software and AI also use this "DXF" for data compatibility. However, compatibility problems are not infrequent. EXDXF-Pro's "Export Function" can output data in R12 format (AC1009) as "DXF" in R12 format, which is a highly popular format.
