You can use the free Autodesk DWG TrueView 2024 viewer application to convert any DWG file to older versions. See Download. ------------- Vladimir Michl (moderator) ARKANCE - https://arkance.world" rel="nofollow - https://arkance.world - Autodesk Platinum Partner |

One more option, run dwgsee program, and save as the drawing as old version dwg/dxf. https://www.dwgsee.com/" rel="nofollow - https://www.dwgsee.com/

Please note that neither the online tools nor DWGsee will create a genuine DWG file - the drawing will be reported as "non Autodesk" and its content may be unreliable. See e.g. the Budweiser DWG compatibility test. The most reliable way is the DWG TrueView conversion. ------------- Vladimir Michl (moderator) ARKANCE - https://arkance.world" rel="nofollow - https://arkance.world - Autodesk Platinum Partner |
