ZwCAD 2009
ZwCAD
With over 150 000 customers in more than 100 countries and thousands projects completed, ZwCAD is the intelligent choice for architects, engineers, designers, and virtually any professional who creates or uses DWG file format drawings.
Basic Features (Unrivaled compatibility) Native DWG support(AutoCAD 2.5 to 2009) Like AutoCAD, ZwCAD uses industry standard DWG as its native file format. ZwCAD can open, edit, and save any existing DWG files saved in AutoCAD from V2.5 to 2009, without any conversion or data loss. That makes ZwCAD more compatible with older versions of DWG files than AutoCAD itself! Since drawings are natively created in DWG, it can be shared between ZwCAD and AutoCAD without data loss.
Summary of the ZwCAD advantages:
- Powerful DWG-based CAD Alternative
- Drawings produced by ZwCAD can be read and edit by AutoCAD, vice versa.
- High level of stability and performance.
- Supports AutoCAD command lines
- AutoCAD-alike user interface, needn't any further training.
