DXF stands for Drawing Exchange Format (or Drawing Interchange Format) and was created by AutoDesk for their AutoCAD and AutoDRAW CAD systems.

There are ASCII (plain text) and binary variants of DXF. The ASCII variant is apparently more prominent. Binary DXF is not to be confused with DXB, a related but distinct format.
