USE CASES

Start with the job you need to finish

DXF work starts with different inputs and different review standards. Use this map to choose a function page, a task-specific workflow, or an instructional guide without treating every need as another keyword article.

Sewing pattern digitization

Turn a flat paper-pattern photo or scan into a reviewable DXF draft, with scale, contour, QA, and ET/CAD checks made explicit.

Scenario page

Logos, icons, and closed contours

Move clean paths and closed shapes from image or SVG inputs into an editable DXF workflow for CAD, templates, or fabrication review.

Function page: SVG to DXF

Scanned drawings and technical line art

Create or refine a visual line-art draft for design communication, then keep technical pattern decisions in the appropriate downstream tool.

Function page: line art

A demand tree, not a content list

Each page has one job in the workflow

Function pages help you act. Scenario pages explain the complete task and its success criteria. Result pages show verified evidence only. Articles explain preparation and failure modes.

Function page

Upload a supported input, convert it, inspect the result, and download a draft.

Scenario page

Match a real job to the right input, output, review steps, and next tool.

Result page

Read the source conditions, output artifact, QA, and ET/CAD review when a real evidence pack exists.

Article page

Prepare the source, understand common failures, and learn what still needs manual review.

Have a representative pattern image ready?

Start with the reviewable conversion workflow. A useful result is one you can inspect in your own ET/CAD process.
