DWG to PNG converter: free and online
Convert DWG to PNG in your browser: drop in a DWG file and download the PNG. The file is converted on your own device and never uploaded, so this dwg to png converter is safe for private and confidential files.
DWG is AutoCAD's own drawing format. PNG is a lossless image format with transparency, used for logos, screenshots and graphics on the web.
Units and scale are kept, so a part drawn at 100 mm opens at 100 mm in AutoCAD, Fusion 360, LibreCAD or QCAD.

Why it matters
Units survive the trip
The most common way a CAD interchange goes wrong is a file arriving with no declared units. Our DXF output always states them.
Extents reported, not assumed
The real drawing bounds are read from the geometry rather than trusted from a header that may be stale.
Entity types flagged
SPLINE, ELLIPSE, HATCH and TEXT are the entities that most often fail on import. They are reported before you find out at the machine.
Nothing uploaded
Client drawings stay on your machine, which matters when the work is under NDA.
Questions
How do I convert DWG to PNG?
Drop your DWG file on this page, check the preview, and press Download. The PNG is made in a few seconds, with no sign-up.
Is my DWG file uploaded anywhere?
No. The dwg to png conversion runs in your browser, on your own device. The file never leaves it.
Can you read DWG?
Yes, in your browser: AutoCAD R13 to 2018 files, with the exception of the 2007 format, which is refused with a message rather than misread. Lines, arcs, circles, polylines, splines, ellipses, blocks and layers are read; text and hatch fills are counted and reported but not drawn. DWG can be written too, as AutoCAD 2000, which every current CAD program opens.
What DXF version do you write?
R2000 by default, which current CAD and CAM packages read. R12 is available for older controllers.
Will my layers survive?
Layer names and colours are kept, and layers that were off or frozen stay that way. Blocks are exploded into their shapes; attributes and paper-space layouts are not carried across.
