The DAM variant processing converts the various image formats to either jpg or png. If you wish to convert DXF to PDF, then I don't think the DAM will do this for you (a Google search shows no hits for ImageGlue). But it shouldn't take a lot of effort to construct an EPX workflow that monitors a "DXF Drop" folder, and for each asset founds invokes a DXF to PDF converter and then places the converted file (and optionally the DXF file) into the DAMDrop folder to be loaded into the DAM (as a non-image asset).
There appears to be many converters and services so there would be options for setting up a conversion workflow. Depending upon the choices the resulting workflow may only require configuration or might require a minor amount of programming logic. For example, if a conversion utility that can be run from the command line in a Windows Command prompt window was placed on the EPX server, the EPX Command Line BIC could invoke a short script that invoked the utility with the needed parameters.

Subject: DAM Variants - Converting .DXF file format
Hi All,
I'm wondering if you run into the situation where you need to convert AutoCAD's DXF file to either .svg or .pdf file formats using DAMVariants, if so can you please suggest tips to convert .DXF file? It will be great if you can provide the matrix - what file format conventions are possible and not possible using DAM/EnterWorks.
