    Moving DXF file origin

    I wrote a free program that moves the origin of AutoCad DXF files very easily. Try it here:

    This is just the first version and I’m trying to improve it. Send me feedback at “dxforigin at gmail dot com”. Any feedback would be very much appreciated!

    That's pretty cool. But it's easier to just move it in AutoCAD.
