Do you mean you already have DWG files and you want to embed them in AutoCAD drawing one above the other? I am asking this because to my knowledge .NET doesn't natively support load/Save DWG or any AutoCAD formats. Note that I didn't try this by myself but I found the following links that discuss similar requirement to yours: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/26868288/inserting-a-preexisting-autocad-drawing-into-a-current-drawing http://docs.autodesk.com/ACD/2014/ENU/index.html?url=files/GUID-2656E245-6EAA-41A3-ABE9-742868182821.htmtopicNumber=d30e720423 Another alternative is to use a commercial SDK. LEADTOOLS is able to load DWG files as can be seen in this post: http://support.leadtools.com/SupportPortal/CS/forums/29003/ShowPost.aspx You can save the result to DXF format using LEADTOOLS SDK and then convert the resultant DXF to DWG using AutoCAD.
