What is the SVG to DXF Converter with Unit & Scale Control?
The hardest part of SVG to DXF is getting the size right. SVG files are measured in 'user units' that mean different things in different programs: Inkscape and browsers treat 1 unit as 1/96 inch, Illustrator as 1/72 inch, and files with a viewBox and mm width are different again. This tool lets you declare what a unit means — or leave it on Auto to use the file's own width/height and viewBox — then either enter a scale percentage or type the exact width or height you need in millimetres, centimetres or inches. The result card and preview show the final size before you download.
Curves are flattened to the accuracy you select (0.005 – 0.05 mm) and circles can stay true DXF CIRCLE entities so CNC and CAD software see real holes. Layers can follow the SVG's groups, or the stroke colour — handy for laser jobs where red lines cut and blue lines engrave — or collapse onto a single CUT layer. Output is AutoCAD 2000 (LWPOLYLINE) or R12 (POLYLINE), moved so the lower-left corner sits at (0,0).

Questions people ask
Why is my DXF the wrong size?
SVG units differ by program. Pick the right 'SVG user unit' or use exact width/height.
Does it convert text?
No. Convert text to paths first because it depends on installed fonts.
Are arcs kept?
SVG arcs become fine polylines; circles stay circles.
Is it private?
Yes, nothing is uploaded.
