What is an AutoCAD File?

AutoCAD is the world's most popular computer-aided design (CAD) software, used by architects, engineers, and designers worldwide. BlinkCAD lets you view AutoCAD files without installing the software.

DWG Files

DWG (Drawing) is AutoCAD's native binary file format, first introduced in 1982. It stores 2D and 3D design data including geometry, layers, dimensions, blocks, and annotations. DWG files are widely used across architecture, engineering, and construction industries.
