How to Convert DWG to SVG in C#

This basic tutorial explains how to convert DWG to SVG in C#. It covers all the important information like the step-wise algorithm and the code snippet to export DWG to SVG image in C#. You will explore different properties to control DWG to SVG image rendering process.

Steps to Convert DWG to SVG in C#

  1. Establish the environment by installing the Aspose.CAD for .NET from the NuGet Package Manager
  2. Access the source DWG file using an instance of the Image class
  3. Create an object of SvgOptions class and set its properties
  4. Convert the DWG to SVG using the Save method

In the above mentioned steps, we have explained the algorithm to convert DWG to SVG in C#. First of all, we will set up the environment by installing the required assemblies using the Nuget package manager, which is then followed by loading the source DWG file from the disk using the Image class object. Then we will set the output SVG file options using an instance of SvgOptions class and finally save the DWG file as SVG on the disk using the Save method.

Code to Convert DWG to SVG in C#

The above example can be used for rendering a DWG to SVG in C# using a simple API interface. The SvgOptions class is used to set the vector rasterization options, select DWG Layers for rendering inside SVG, rotation property for SVG, property for rendering text as shapes, setting the user watermark color and text etc. Finally, the DWG is converted to SVG using the Save method provided SVG options.
