pcbx.toolsDXF file conversion
Supported planar drawing geometry with explicit units; electrical meaning, thickness and drilled holes are not inferred.
What to upload
Provide a planar DXF drawing with explicit units. Keep the intended board outline separate from unrelated mechanical artwork when possible.
What to review
Inspect scale, closed contours and arc approximations. Electrical layers, holes and board thickness are not inferred from drawing geometry.
