Import and Export

Exporting Objects

You can export any selected workpiece to various vector formats:

  1. Select a workpiece on the canvas
  2. Choose Object → Export Object... (or right-click and select from context menu)
  3. Choose the export format:
    • RFS (.rfs): Rayforge's native parametric sketch format - preserves all constraints and can be re-imported for editing
    • SVG (.svg): Standard vector format - widely compatible with design software
    • DXF (.dxf): CAD interchange format - compatible with most CAD applications

Saving Sketches

You can save your 2D sketches to files for reuse in other projects. All parametric constraints are preserved when saving, ensuring your designs maintain their geometric relationships.

Importing Sketches

Saved sketches can be imported into any workspace, allowing you to create a library of commonly used design elements. The import process maintains all constraints and dimensional relationships.
