File Extension | DFT |
Full Name | Solid Edge Drawing Format |
File with a .DFT extension contains a CAD document which is being created and it has not been finished yet.
File Extension | PAR |
Full Name | Solid Edge Part CAD Format |
Files with the .PAR extension contain indexes - parity groups of files in the Parchive archive – namely parity volume set.
File format conversion is the process of transforming a file from one format (referred to as "DFT") to another (referred to as "PAR"). This may be necessary for various reasons. For example, DFT file may be incompatible with the software or device we want to use to open or edit it. In such cases, converting the file from format DFT to format PAR becomes essential.
So, how can we perform DFT to PAR file conversion? Fortunately, there are many tools and computer programs available that enable file format conversion. These tools work by reading the data from the file in format DFT and transforming it into format PAR. This allows the preservation of the original information contained in the file, even after changing its format. Below you will find a list of DFT to PAR converters.
If you have already downloaded one of the converters and installed it on your computer, you can proceed to the appropriate conversion process of DFT to PAR. Handling all the programs is usually very intuitive and is based on the same pattern of conduct. We will briefly discuss a few steps that you always need to go through while changing the format of the DFT file:
File extensions are not normally displayed to users. To change this, go to Control Panel, select Appearance and Personalization and Folder Options. Next, select the View and find the option "Hide extensions for known file types". The option should be deselected (cleared) and confirmed with OK.
