Desktop app. No AutoCAD.

图译 Tuyi

A powerful, open-source DWG/DXF translator

Open a DWG or DXF. Tuyi lists the text. You edit the translation. It saves a new file next to it. The original stays put.

Windows 10 / 11 (64-bit). Mac Apple silicon. Chinese to English by default.

Tuyi: add a drawing on the left, translate at the bottom

Three steps

  1. 1

    Add drawings

    Click the plus on the left, or drop DWG / DXF files. Several at once is fine. The original is read-only.

  2. 2

    Translate

    Glossary terms hit first. The rest go through your DeepL, Azure, Ollama, or custom endpoint. You can edit by hand.

  3. 3

    Save a new file

    Translate writes a new file. Default folder is Documents / Tuyi output.

DXF works after install. For DWG, install ODA File Converter。 on this machine. Tuyi does not bundle it.

It translates CAD text, not a screenshot of the drawing

Titles, notes, attributes, dimensions, tables. Chinese, English, Japanese, Korean, German, French. Cloud, your own endpoint, or offline.

Tuyi home: add a drawing on the left

A batch, a table, one write-back

Regular mode edits one drawing. Batch export runs a queue. Hand-edited rows export to CSV / Excel, then import and write back.

  • Chinese to English by default. Change direction in the toolbar.
  • Filter numbers, duplicates, and text already in the target language.
  • Check for updates inside the app.

FAQ

Which Windows versions work?
Windows 10 or 11, 64-bit. Not 32-bit, not Windows 7 / 8. On Windows 10, install Edge WebView2 if the app asks for it.
Which Mac download do I need?
Apple menu, About This Mac. If it says Apple M1 / M2 / M3 / M4, get Apple silicon. If it says Intel, get Intel. They are not interchangeable. If the Intel build is missing, the button says so.
Do I need AutoCAD?
No. Tuyi is a standalone app. DXF opens directly. DWG uses ODA File Converter on your machine.
Is ODA bundled?
No, and it will not be. The license does not allow shipping it with the app. Install ODA File Converter yourself. DXF-only work does not need it.
It will not open the first time?
That is expected. The installer is not code-signed yet. Mac: right-click the icon, Open. Windows: More info, Run anyway.
Does it cost money? Is there a license key?
No. MIT. Translation keys are yours: DeepL, Azure, Ollama, or a custom endpoint. Tuyi does not create accounts. It does not call out unless you check for updates.
