Recently I’m working on the AutoCAD attribute extraction. When I install the pywin32 and write the code as follow:
Before into the code, I want to ask one question. If I wish to extract from dxf file can I use the same method as below?

import win32com.client
acad = win32com.client.Dispatch("AutoCAD.Application")

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "F:\PHP\DXF_Data\Script4.py", line 3, in <module>
    acad = win32com.client.Dispatch("__**AutoCAD.Application”)
