Convert DXF to 3DS via Python

Instantly convert DXF to 3DS without needing AutoCAD® or any other rendering software.

How to Convert DXF to 3DS Using Python

In order to convert DXF to 3DS, we’ll use Aspose.CAD for Python API which is a feature-rich, powerful and easy to use document manipulation and conversion API for Python platform. Open NPM package manager, search for Aspose.CAD and install. You may also use the following command from the Package Manager Console.

Package Manager Console Command


pip install aspose-cad

Steps to Convert DXF to 3DS via Python

Python programmers can easily load & convert DXF files to 3DS in just a few lines of code.

  1. Load DXF file with Image.Load method
  2. Create an instance of ThreeDSOptions class
  3. Call Image.Save method while passing the resultant file path & object of ThreeDSOptions

System Requirements

Before running the Python conversion code, make sure that you have the following prerequisites.

  • Microsoft Windows or a compatible OS with Web browser.
  • Text editors such as Microsoft Visual Studio Code or Notepad or Notepad++.

    DXF What is DXF File Format?

    DXF, Drawing Interchange Format, or Drawing Exchange Format, is a tagged data representation of AutoCAD drawing file. Each element in the file has a prefix integer number called a group code. This group code actually represents the element that follows and indicates the meaning of a data element for a given object type. DXF makes it possible to represent almost all user-specified information in a drawing file. DXF file format was developed by Autodesk as CAD data file format for data interoperability between AutoCAD and other applications. Thus, data can be imported from other formats to DXF to AutoCAD as per the DXF file format interoperability specifications.

    3DS What is 3DS File Format?

    A file with .3ds extension represents 3D Sudio (DOS) mesh file format used by Autodesk 3D Studio. Autodesk 3D Studio has been in 3D file format market since 1990s and has now evolved to 3D Studio MAX for working with 3D modeling, animation and rendering. A 3DS file contains data for 3D representation of scenes and images and is one of the popular file formats for 3D data import and export. It considers information like camera locations, Mesh data, lighting information, viewport configurations, smoothing group data, bitmap references and attributes to create vertices and polygons for rendering a scene.
