How to Convert DWG to SKF Format

Converting DWG files to SKF files is relatively easy.

AutoSketch is 2D drawing platform that comes with dozens of templates and tools created specifically to help its users create sketches, informative graphics and product specifications. AutoSketch understands multiple file formats, so you can import files to enhance your drawings and export your drawings in different formats to exchange them with your colleagues or clients. The DWG format is created by AutoCAD. Fortunately, AutoSketch can open DWG files and save them in its own format, SKF.

Instructions

1. Double-click the AutoSketch icon to start the software.

2. Go to the File menu and click on Open. The Open Drawing File window will appear. Select "AutoCAD Drawing File" in the Files of type drop-down box. Use the file browser to find and highlight the DWG file. Click OK to open the file in AutoSketch.

3. Go to the File menu and click on Save to start saving the file. Select "AutoSketch" in the Files of type drop-down box. Enter a name for your new SKF file in the File name text box and use the file browser to choose where to save the file.

4. Click on Save to convert the DWG file you opened earlier to a SKF file.
