What is a DAT file?
DAT is a generic data file extension used by many different programs to store information in text, binary, or proprietary format. Its structure varies depending on the application.
DAT files may contain configuration data, logs, video metadata, or raw data from specialized devices, making them versatile but not universally readable without context.
How to open DAT files
DAT files can be opened with a text editor or the program that originally created them. Their content varies widely—text, binary data, or media streams.

What is a DXF file?
DXF stands for Drawing Exchange Format and was created by Autodesk to facilitate data interoperability between AutoCAD and other software. Unlike DWG, DXF is an open format, often used to exchange design data between different CAD tools.
DXF files can store 2D and 3D data and are commonly used in CNC machining, laser cutting, and vector design. Their plain text structure makes them easier to interpret but can result in larger file sizes compared to binary formats.
How to open DXF files
DXF files can be opened with almost any CAD software, including AutoCAD, LibreCAD, SolidWorks, and CorelDRAW. Many vector editors and laser cutting tools also support DXF.
AnyConv makes it easy to convert DXF files to SVG, PDF, or other formats for broader compatibility.
