DXF Preparation Workflow

This workflow treats a DXF as a handoff that needs inspection, not just an export button. It covers unit conversion, duplicate detection, removal of non-cut geometry, consistent orientation, flat-pattern preparation, and a known-dimension check before the file moves on.

A clean contour makes a clearer handoff. A before/after planar outline shows a duplicate path and tiny non-cut island removed, with a known-length check retained. The sample shape is fictional. — A before/after planar outline shows a duplicate path and tiny non-cut island removed, with a known-length check retained.
