Editor's review
Total CAD Converter is a batch converter utility to converts CAD native format DWG files to popular image formats such as TIFF, BMP, JPEG, PNG, WMF, DXF and PDF format. This is a standalone application works without AutoCAD application. The application is supports in English, Spanish, Russian, German, French and Japanese languages.
Features: The application has user interface similar to Windows Explorer. You can select the directories from the left side and the lists of files are displayed to the right side of panel. Click on convert menu and format for conversion, it will open you wizard to navigate to the step by step process to perform conversion. Set the destination folder to store the converted files. Select color mode as normal, black and white. Application allows you to resize image during conversion, you can select options as don`t resize image or resize image to specified width and height. You can set rotate image option. Application supports a large list of compression format, select appropriate format from the list. You can set photometric interpretation for TIFF file from the supported options. Application displays the list of all the information set, once you agree with this settings, click on start button to start conversion process. The application shows the conversion process and the process goes on infinitely and the converted file doesn`t get saved at the defined location.
Overall: The program allows you to perform all the settings but doesn’t convert the file.
tried to convert to dxf.
in both cases the software said it was successful but two different cad systems could not read either file.
