I agree with Rodrigo Rodrigues. Even while converting the files I felt that the output of converter software is limited. Most of the files that got converted are not like a parent SVG files.
I propose that we make DWG files using AUTOCAD with native DWG elements like Line.dwg, polyline.dwg, circle.dwg, and so on. If this approach is correct, I can start creating these files.
