- Developed by AutoCAD, a DWG is a 2D OR 3D database file that is used to store vector image data and metadata that describes the file content. The .DXF files are the ASCII versions of the .DWG files.
- A PDF file is a multi-platform document created by Adobe Acrobat or another PDF application. The PDF format is commonly used for saving documents and publications in a standard format that can be viewed on multiple platforms. In many cases, PDF files are created from existing documents instead of from scratch.
