Concepts

DwgList 2021 DLL is designed to extract information from AutoCAD DWG and DXF files. In most cases this is just extraction of information as it appears in the AutoCAD drawings. In each case the information is extracted using the API Methods. This information can include:

• External References
• Raster References (what images are used in the drawing)
• Fonts used
• Block references and their content

External References

DwgList 2021 DLL provides API methods to list all External Reference files (AutoCAD DWG or DXF files that are referenced into the main drawing) listing the name and path name along with whether they could be found.

Raster References

DwgList 2021 DLL provides API methods to list all Raster Reference files (raster image files, usually in TIFF, JPG, PNG or GIF format, that are referenced into the main drawing) listing the name and path name along with whether they could be found.

Fonts

DwgList 2021 DLL provides API methods to list all Font files (either SHX or TrueType fonts that are used in the drawing) listing the name and whether they could be found.

Block References
