It seems DXF files can be accessed with JavaScript.
This sounds a bit peculiar to me, how big are these files?
Can be very big
http://medw.co.uk/fisheye/view.php?gallery_id=36 will give you the idea.
I'm dumping the images to jpg from Turbocad, so I have separate thumbnails to

to automatically produce thumbnails for them. server end rather than client
