DXF is a CAD file interchange format defined by Autodesk (makers of PC
CAD programs AutoCAD and AutoSketch).  It's supported for file interchange
by a number of other CAD vendors.  There is a description of the format
in an appendix in the AutoCAD manual (and in some of the AutoCAD books
available from third parties).  I don't know about any relationship
to ALIAS.
