DXF Viewer: What security does the DXF format offer me when exchanging data?

The DXF format enables CAD data to be exchanged across platforms and therefore offers a high degree of flexibility in the work process. However, unlike other formats such as DWG, it has no integrated encryption options.

What does that mean?

This means that additional security measures such as encryption and secure transmission paths are necessary to protect sensitive design data from unauthorized access. It is therefore advisable to use secure communication methods when exchanging DXF files in order to ensure both integrity and the protection of intellectual property.

The popularity of the DXF format is undisputed

Despite its limitations, the DXF format remains a widely used choice for exchanging CAD models, especially in scenarios that require compatibility between different software platforms.

It is characterized by its open documentation, which facilitates integration into numerous applications. Nevertheless, it is important to be aware of the limitations of the format, especially when displaying complex geometries or 3D data.

When do you need additional software?

For special requirements, such as the processing or management of highly detailed models, it may make sense to use supplementary software solutions that offer extended functions and greater security.

But why exchange insecure and complicated CAD data via e-mail, FTP or cloud? In addition to the long upload and download times, you always lose a significant amount of control over your own data.

Our talent - combining everything

Therefore: Companies not only need software to visualize and edit a CAD file, but also an easy to set up yet convenient online user, file and project management system: VisShare.

Your answer for good collaboration with DXF files - The company's own 3DViewStation tool VisShare

VisShare is your company's own web environment in the browser for MultiCAD collaboration - ideal for your colleagues, teams and branches.

As a platform with a shared database and intuitive interface, VisShare enables all employees to access your CAD data/2D and 3D drawings company-wide and to view them uniformly.

The security of your DXF drawings has priority

Share, manage, control, visualize and analyse a CAD file easily and securely. This makes it the ideal solution for efficient collaboration and enables transparent processes and workflows with 2D drawings and 3D files across specialist and departmental boundaries.

Access control regulation for maximum security of your DXF Viewer online

User and group administration (teams) regulates access control and rights. This means that VisShare can also be used as a front end for partners, suppliers and customers, without any major configuration and installation effort to display DXF drawings and 3D formats.

You and your partners can use our viewer as an Autodesk viewer

Inspire your partners, suppliers and customers with a central web portal to share, visualize, analyze and manage DXF files and CAD drawings securely and conveniently. VisShare is easy to use, easy to install - easy for everyone.

What are the format differences between DXF and DWG?

Due to the publicly accessible documentation of DXF, it is still a frequently used data format for cross-platform data exchange.

DXF - The distribution has decreased more and more

Why? AutoCAD has become increasingly powerful over time and supports more and more complex object types. However, not all of these are documented in DXF, such as ACIS solids.

DXF is not the same as DWG?

Other new object types are only partially documented or not described well enough to support third-party providers in interface development. In this respect, the DXF format no longer represents the 100% export of a DWG file.

Why wait any longer? Test DXF and DWG Viewer now

Test your DXF or DWG Viewer online now here or download here your DXF Opener as a desktop version. Available on your device such as cell phone, tablet, laptop or computer and even possible without installation if desired.

3DViewStation WebViewer - free choice of device

Our 3DViewStation WebViewer version offers a free choice of devices. This is characterized by the fact that your CAD data is loaded and displayed in the browser.

This is also made possible by a link in the browser to our own VisShare server, on which your DXF files are securely stored and can be managed by you.

Similarities to Google Drive?

Similar to Google Drive, but much more secure and tailored to sensitive 3D files. The security of a service is crucial and decisive for many companies. Here you will find everything you need to know about this topic.

Display CAD files and formats such as STEP, DXF files or DWF files in the DWG Viewer

Using a viewer such as 3DViewStation to display 2D and 3D models offers many advantages. With this DWG viewer you can import/export or display a number of CAD formats, but the viewer should not be seen as just a conversion tool.

Not only display but also edit

We can not only display a CAD file format but also edit it. For example, we support the following formats: STEP, IGES, DWF, PDF format and many more.

The DXF file, DWF and DWG belong to Autodesk and so our viewer is often referred to as Autodesk Viewer or STEP Viewer.

Editing a 2D and 3D drawing

Editing 2D drawings or 3D drawings is really child's play with 3DViewStation as a DXF viewer. Our viewer software is characterized by its user-friendly interface, fast reading and extensive functions, which are the same on every device.

Extensive functions on the web and desktop

In the browser display with our WebViewer as DXF Viewer, you will find the same settings as in our Desktop Version as DXF Viewer.

Discover our 180+ functions for displaying errors, performing measurements and preparing the file both for internal purposes and for forwarding to suppliers.
