Working with DXF Files in Adobe AIR

Hi,

I need to show a DXF file in an Adobe AIR application. What I have seen is

that I will probably have to convert it to a suitable file type such as FXG

for Flex. I wonder if there is any library or something to make this

conversion.

It would be fine any other ideas instead of libraries for conversion having

in mind that what I need is to show the content of DXF file into my

application.

Thanks,

Ale

Illustrator can import DXF and export either SWF or SVG.

If you mean you have to convert it at runtime, then I'm not sure how you would do that.

Hi Colin,

Thanks for your reply.

The main idea is to make conversion at runtime, providing the user the functionality of importing DXF files into the application to be displayed.

Thanks,

Ale

Could this be an option?:

Zamzar - File Conversion API

You can send it DXF and get back PNG, SVG, and many other formats. If you use the free service you're limited to 1 MB files, and 50 conversions per month.

That was the first online converter I found, there may be others that are free, or at least cheaper.
