This uploads a read-only copy to our server. The copy is deleted when the link expires or you revoke it. Cancel Clear local drawings Edit DWG Without AutoCAD Use the DWG editor for a specific revision to an existing drawing: move an object, correct an annotation or add a dimension. The canvas, toolbar and live coordinates keep the change in the context of the original geometry. Retain your original file before editing. Review its layers and a known dimension first, then export the revised drawing separately so the recipient can compare it. Editing Tools Add the missing detail Create lines, rectangles and circles, then add text or dimensions to explain the revision. Place changes precisely Enter exact coordinates and sizes. Endpoint and midpoint snaps help new geometry align with existing objects. Keep revisions organized Create and manage layers, move selected objects between them and control visibility while reviewing the changes. Adjust reusable blocks Create a block from a selection, move, copy, rotate or scale it, and optionally save it to a block library for another drawing. Undo an unwanted change Select, move or delete objects and use undo or redo to compare revisions as you work. Deliver an editable revision Export DWG or DXF for the next CAD user, and a vector PDF when reviewers only need a document. How to Edit a DWG File Online Open and inspect the source Choose a DWG, DXF or DWT, check the expected layers and fit the drawing. A blank drawing is also available for a new detail. Make the intended revision Use precise drawing, selection and modification tools; add dimensions or text and group repeated geometry into blocks. Check a separate export Download DWG or DXF and reopen it to compare with the original. Use PDF for a review copy and verify its page scale.

Local saving and clearing Cloud storage and deletion A FEW USEFUL ANSWERS Frequently asked questions Can I edit DWG files without AutoCAD? + Yes. Open the drawing here, use the editing tools and export the revised file as DWG, DXF or PDF. Is this DWG editor free? + Yes. All revision tools, layers, blocks, conversions, batch work and watermark-free exports are free. Daily file-task limits apply; there is no payment step for a drawing command. What can I use this online CAD tool for? + Make a revision to a 2D floor plan, a simple part drawing or an annotated technical detail. You can also start a new drawing. Check dimensions and exported files before construction or manufacture. Can I use a block in another drawing? + Yes. Create a block from selected objects and save it in your block library, then insert it into another drawing. Saving a persistent local library is an explicit choice. Will editing overwrite the DWG I opened? + The downloaded export is a separate file. Keep your original and compare the revised DWG or DXF before replacing it in your project. Local history and cloud storage are explicit saving choices.
