- CAD (Computer-Aided Design) files may contain 2D or 3D designs.
- They are generated by CAD software programs, which can be used to create models or architecture plans.
Different Types of CAD File Format:
| Format Name | Description | Example |
.DWG
|
This is the standard AutoCAD drawing file format |
 |
.BAK
| This is AutoCAD's backup file format. Whenever you save a drawing, AutoCAD will automatically create a duplicate backup file. |  |
.DWT
| This is a newer format (R14) that is used for drawing templates. |  |
.SV$
| This is AutoCAD's format it uses whenever it performs an automatic save |  |
.DXF
| This is not really an AutoCAD format but an industry standard, but one that you should be aware of. DXF stands for Drawing eXchangeFormat. | |
| .WMF | This is a Windows Meta File. This file can be used if you need to use this drawing in a non-CAD program. |  |
| .3DS | This is an older extension for 3D Studio Max - a high level animation and rendering program. |  |
