Revit to DWG Converter

About This Tool

This tool provides a file-based conversion from RVT to DWG, addressing CAD interoperability needs for BIM teams. It accepts RVT inputs and outputs DWG files, with options to choose DWG version and export scope (2D views, sheets, or geometry). It operates without requiring a Revit session and focuses on data translation and interoperability.
Core logic covers geometry translation, layer mapping, units handling, and coordinate alignment. The system preserves geometric fidelity for 2D and 3D entities within DWG limits; batch processing is supported. Required inputs include the RVT file and the target DWG version; optional features include layer presets, view selections, and unit scaling. Outputs are DWG files along with a settings manifest.
In practice, BIM managers use it to deliver CAD drawings to drafting teams, who work within AutoCAD or DWG-compatible tools. The tool implements predictable conversion rules, documents assumptions, and provides error reporting for unsupported constructs. It emphasizes version compatibility, reproducibility, and straightforward batch workflows.
