Currently using AutoCAD 2017. Have a customer who needs shapefiles for a county dwg. I know these can be created in AutoCAD Map. Do you have a software that does this? If so can you briefly tell me what is does? Also what is the cost?

Hi @sbhibbert,

FME can do both CAD (DWG) to Shapefile and Shapefile to CAD (DWG) translations:
