Simple setup and familiar interface
The installation procedure is a fast and easy job that shouldn't give you any trouble. Once it's over, you are greeted by a clean and intuitive interface which resembles ACDSee, where you can begin by opening files with the DWL, DWG, DXF or DWF extension.
Customize the view and copy drawings
It's possible to zoom in and out, rotate the view, switch to full screen mode, open the next or preview file in the current location, copy drawings to the Clipboard as images, as well as print file in single or batch mode.

A copy of the original drawing can be saved to file with the DXF or DWG format. What's more, you can customize color and line weight settings when copying drawings, copy the entities of a selected drawing, as well as convert DWG to JPEG, TIFF, GIF, PNG, BMP or PDF format.When it comes to markup options, you can measure any two selected points to obtain the distance in any measurement unit you prefer, along with the 2D or 3D coordinates of both the start and end point.
