Good to know
- The VSD drawing is drawn by Inkscape. Only the first page is converted.
- The shapes stay shapes in the DXF, so it stays sharp at any size. DXF holds lines and curves, not pictures or gradients, so those are simplified.
- Diagrams made of many pages give only the first page.
Frequently asked questions
Is converting VSD to DXF free?
Yes. Everyone gets 25 free credits a day, with no account needed. Conversions on our server use one credit per started minute of work, so most cost a single credit. Credits reset at midnight UTC.
Are my VSD files uploaded anywhere?
This conversion runs on our server, because drawing a VSD file needs Inkscape, which does not run in a browser. Your file is sent over an encrypted connection, and both it and the result are deleted 72 hours after the conversion. The server has no internet access while it works on your file.
How large can the VSD file be?
Up to 1 GB per file. This conversion runs on our server, which accepts files up to that size.
Will the DXF look the same as the VSD?
The shapes stay shapes, so the DXF looks like the VSD at any size. Fonts the converter does not have are replaced, and effects the DXF cannot hold are simplified.
Can I convert several VSD files at once?
Yes. Add as many files as you like; they are converted one after another, and each one gets its own Download button.
