A free tool which affords this (after a fashion) is Inkscape.
Import into it, export as .pdf, then open in the application of your choice.

There's an Applescripting list which is really good which Apple hosts.
There's also some work on a standard scripting library which would be nice to get Apple to include w/ the OS, but I can't paste anything into this...
I've gotten stuff done w/ AppleScript which just wasn't feasible otherwise --- including one script which Adobe's scripting evangelist stated was flat out impossible.

Affinity itself is the wrong place to put the effort --- instead, pitch in on GNUstep, so that it can be used to compile and run Affinity Designer / Photo.
-
InDesign's scripting model would be a good one to emulate --- there's a core scripting engine, which allows one to use three different languages:
- Applescript on Mac OS X
- VBScript on Windows
- JavaScript cross-platform on either
Lua or Python as platform-independent options would be nice, but it would be good to have AppleScript support, or at least afford a way for AppleScript to call whatever scripting language is used to control Affinity Designer on the Mac --- similarly on Windows, it would be great to allow Powershell or VBScript to be able to engage scripts.

Is it only Win 10 which needs 64-bit?
Or will Win 7 32-bit and Win 8.1 32-bit not be able to?

Applescript and Automator support would prob. make it possible for me to justify Affinity Designer at work.

Is it also possible to export to a DXF in addition to importing?
I don't see an export option.
