CAM Export Formats — DXF, SVG, PDF & More

Download nested DXF geometry, SVG previews, and PDF job packets sized for CNC, laser, and documentation workflows.

Package nests for the shop floor: bundled DXF downloads for plates and parts, crisp SVG vector summaries, and PDF reports with metrics your estimators and operators expect. Every format stays aligned with what Sheet2Nest actually renders—no unsupported CAM promises.

ExportFormats

Five powerful export options for every production need

Individual Part Export

Download DXF files for each part

Export each part separately as an individual DXF file. Perfect for ordering specific components or verifying part geometry before production.

  • One file per part
  • Independent CAM setup
  • Part-specific measurements

All Nested Sheets (Single File)

Combined DXF for all nested sheets

Export all nested sheets as a single comprehensive DXF file. All parts from all sheets are included with proper positioning and layer organization.

  • Complete nesting in one file
  • Organized by layers
  • Single CAM setup

Individual Sheet Export

DXF file for each nested sheet

Export each nested sheet as a separate DXF file. Each sheet contains only the parts nested on that specific sheet with proper layout and positioning.

  • One file per sheet
  • Sheet-specific layouts
  • Independent scheduling

SVG Vector Graphics Export

Scalable vector format for design

Export nesting results as SVG files. Perfect for web viewing, design software integration, or high-resolution printing without quality loss.

  • Scalable quality
  • Web-ready format
  • Design software compatible

PDF Report Export

Comprehensive detailed reports

Generate professional PDF reports with complete nesting analysis, utilization statistics, part inventory, sheet layouts, and production details. Detailed reports are covered in the next section.

  • Professional formatting
  • Utilization analysis
  • Part inventory list

More Nesting Wizard features

DXF processing

Nest DXF files in your browser with automated placement—sheet cutting optimization and CAD-friendly exports without installing desktop CAD.

Quick Add Part

Create rectangles, circles, brackets, and structural profiles from dimensions—live preview, queue multiple parts, and add them straight into nesting or cost quotes.

Part detection

Closed contours and holes are inferred from DXF geometry—less manual picking before you nest.

Nesting algorithms

Fast greedy plus optimized nesting for DXF sheets—many jobs reduce scrap 20%+ vs naive layouts; results vary by job.

Try it in the nesting wizard

Upload your DXF, review parts, set quantities, and export optimized layouts with utilization reports.
