DXF Sample Files
DXF (.dxf) files encode 2D and 3D CAD geometry in a text-based exchange format used across drafting, fabrication, and CAM pipelines. Use sample .dxf files to validate importer compatibility, layer/entity parsing, and design-to-toolpath handoff workflows.

Checksum Verification
Use checksums to confirm file integrity after download.

# Compare output with SHA256 values listed above.
Where is the machine-readable manifest?
Use the manifest when you need stable names, SHA256 values, and URLs for automation.
Use in code — curl, Python, Node, wget
Copy any snippet directly into scripts, test suites, or CI pipelines. All URLs are stable and publicly accessible with no auth required.

Validation Methodology
- Validate extension and MIME detection before processing.
- Benchmark performance with small and larger files.
- Test malformed-input handling and error messaging.
