RLD/EM to DXF Converter

About This Tool

The converter translates CAD files in RLD or EM formats into DXF, enabling interoperability across CAD applications. It parses legacy geometry, layer information, and basic attributes to prepare a DXF export suitable for downstream editing and review. Conceptually, the process involves parsing the source to extract entities, normalizing units, applying an optional scale, and translating each entity to its DXF equivalent. It preserves the original layer structure and maps elements to corresponding DXF entities, supporting both 2D and select 3D data where possible. Target users include mechanical engineers, architectural technicians, and BIM coordinators who exchange data with partners using DXF pipelines. The tool is especially valuable during project handoffs, archival workflows, and iterative design reviews where DXF serves as a neutral interchange format. It reduces manual re-drafting and data loss, offering batch conversion, version-aware DXF output, and diagnostics in cases of partial translation.
