Every file is available as DXF, SVG and PDF. DXF works with AutoCAD, Fusion 360, VCarve Pro, Easel and most CNC/CAM software. SVG works with LightBurn, Glowforge, Illustrator, Inkscape and Cricut. All three formats are included in every download.

Question 2

Are these files really free?

Yes. Every file in the gallery is free to download. You just need to create a free account so we know who is downloading. There are no credit charges for gallery downloads.

Question 3

What machines and software are compatible?

Accepted Answer

Our files work with all major laser cutters (Glowforge, xTool, Epilog, OMTech), CNC routers, plasma cutters and vinyl cutters. They are compatible with AutoCAD, Illustrator, CorelDRAW, Inkscape, Fusion 360, LightBurn, VCarve Pro, Easel, Carbide Create, Silhouette Studio and Cricut Design Space.

Question 4

What materials can I cut these from?

Accepted Answer

The vector files are material-agnostic. They work with wood, plywood, MDF, acrylic, metal, leather, vinyl, cardstock, fabric and any other material your machine supports.

Question 5

How are these files created?

Accepted Answer

Each file is AI-generated from a photograph using PhotoCAD. Our AI interprets the image and produces clean, manufacturing-ready line art — not a simple auto-trace. The result is optimized for cutting and engraving with smooth paths and no floating islands.

Question 6

Can I create my own vector files?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Upload any photo on the Convert page and PhotoCAD will generate a manufacturing-ready DXF and SVG from it in under two minutes. Your first conversion is free.
