I recently installed Freecad and despite my best efforts at searching > through GitHub, Reddit and Freecad's own forums, I'm at a loss here: > My company uses old dwg files (which I sadly can't disclose) and I'm > looking to convert them into DXF so I can work on them, update them, and > ultimately release newer versions on open licence formats. > > The plans I'm trying to convert contain 3d objects, blocks, 3d plans and > solids, but all my endeavours to convert them and then use them in freecad > have been unsucessful so far. > > I'd like to disclose more information to get some help, but I honestly > wouldn't know where to start.

First 6 characters in DWG file (like AC1006). 2) You could use dwgread command to parse DWG file (e.g. dwgread -v3 __DWG_FILE__, output to stderr). We are supporting all versions. With issues. We are fixing them if we know how to fix them. There are many situations like unknown something, or error. Depends on 1) dwgread tool reports section, entity, class etc. 3) You could convert DWG file to DXF by dwg2dxf command. There are another issues with conversion from DWG to DXF. 4) When you have a concrete issue which you could describe in some usable way, feel free to report issue in https://github.com/LibreDWG/libredwg/issues 5) You could discuss things in https://github.com/LibreDWG/libredwg/discussions Kind regards, Michal Josef Špaček tel: +420 777 623 160 https://skim.cz
