I want to get the difference of two dxf files and want to save it in third file. I want to set the limitation also. If my text shifts upto certain units , it shouldn't be shown in difference. 'DWG diff' partially does the job. It is not flexible. I cann't set limits and cann't save the diff. Does someone knows better software or Autolisp.

You don't mention whether you want to see a comprehensive graphical difference or if you are just looking for "text shifts". A DXF file is a text file so you can diff it with anything that diffs text. You could then check the diff (export a patch file, perhaps) for "text shits".

  • That is non-trivial. Here is an existing app that compares 2 DWG files (you need AutoCAD to run it in) http://apps.exchange.autodesk.com/ACD/en/Detail/Index?id=appstore.exchange.autodesk.com%3adwgcompare%3aen Note it won't save the diff result as a new DWG. – CAD bloke May 07 '14 at 21:11
