The DWG to PAT Converter is a specialized desktop utility that extracts custom hatch patterns from AutoCAD DWG files and converts them into standard .pat (pattern) files. These PAT files can then be used in AutoCAD, BricsCAD, ZWCAD, DraftSight, or any CAD software that supports PAT pattern definitions.
