Import Namespaces

Start by importing the necessary namespaces into your .NET project. These namespaces are crucial for utilizing the functionalities provided by Aspose.CAD.

Step 1: Load CFF File

string MyDir = "Your Document Directory";
using (Image image = Image.Load(MyDir + "WineBottle_Die.cf2"))
