Hi, I have a .dwg file. How can I get the json files required by cad.js from it. I tried to convert the .dwg files using autocad to json but none matches with the format you guys have. So what should I do in this situation. I have a .dwg file & want to load this model in this tool (cad js)

Right now the tool only supports models in the STEP file format. Sorry. You may be able to get AutoCAD (of whatever tool generated the .dwg file) to export a .stp instead.

Thanks for your reply. From the code it seem that it takes json file (index.json, batch.json,annotation.json, etc..) as input. I however, could not find a way to load a .stp file. Can you please help me understand how I can load a .stp file into cad.js ? Thanks...

Hi, I'm doing a test like this.Do you have access to the.stp file?
