What is the G-code to SVG / PNG / DXF Toolpath Converter?
A G-code file is hard to share or document; an image of the toolpath is easy. This converter parses your FDM G-code (including arcs and every layer) and renders any range of layers to SVG, PNG or DXF. SVG output is true-scale millimetres, with paths grouped per layer and coloured by feature type (outer wall, inner wall, infill, support…) or by speed; PNG output lets you pick the resolution in pixels per millimetre and a transparent, white or dark background.
You can export a single layer (to import into Inkscape, a laser cutter or a CAD sketch), a flattened range of layers, a ZIP containing one SVG per layer for documentation, or a DXF with each G-code layer on its own DXF layer. Everything is computed in your browser.
