What is a DWG file?
DWG is one of the most widely used file formats in the field of computer-aided design (CAD). Originally developed by Autodesk, it is the native format for AutoCAD and contains both 2D and 3D design data, including vector graphics and metadata.
DWG files are highly efficient for storing large and complex technical drawings and are used across various industries such as architecture, engineering, and manufacturing. Because of their widespread use, DWG files are supported by many CAD programs, although full compatibility is best with Autodesk products.
How to open DWG files
DWG files can be opened using AutoCAD, DraftSight, BricsCAD, or free viewers like Autodesk DWG TrueView. Many third-party CAD tools also support DWG to varying degrees.
