IFC can be used in several DWG based software to transfer model data. It will only contain 3D modelspace data. Sheets and paperspace information needs to be transferred as DWG format as export secondary.

Developments of IFC for DWG is mostly based on the work of the Open Design Alliance. ODA is a non-profit technology consortium that provides AEC software solutions for engineering applications.

The results of importing IFC and conversion may vary per product. The result of importing a IFC object is that it either becomes a Solid, Mesh or 'software specific entitie'
