I have files in both .dxf and .dwg format. 

How do I import these files into LucidChart? Or is this not possible?

Hi there Elissa!

Thanks for posting in the Lucidchart community. Unfortunately this functionality is not currently available in Lucidchart. Would you mind add this to our feature request form? In the meantime if you aren't planning on editing anything on your chart you can import it as a JPEG file and work on top of it. 

Hope this helps!

Hi Ryan 

I have the same question as Elissa - does LucidChart now offer the functionality to import a .dxf or .dwg file? 

Thank you!!

Evyn

Hi Evyn this functionality is not currently available in Lucidchart. However Lucidchart does allow you to import diagrams from MS Visio (.vdx .vsdx and .vsd) Gliffy (.gxml .gliffy) Draw.io (.xml) and Omnigraffle (.graffle .graffle.zip).

Considering this was being asked/requested 6 years ago. Does Lucid now offer the ability to import both .dxf and .dwg format? If not, are there any plans on the road map to offer this? If so by when?
