Description

CADsnip serves as an online markup utility designed specifically for architects, engineers, contractors, and other professionals within the construction industry who require an effective means to convey alterations on drawings. Users can easily select a segment of a drawing using Win+Shift+S, paste it into the provided editor, and enhance it with annotations such as text, revision clouds, dimensions, hatches, numbered comments, and stamps. Additionally, it allows users to open a PDF page for annotation purposes. Once the markups are complete, they can be copied for use in emails or Microsoft Teams, or saved as PNG files, while editable projects can be preserved in CADsnip's proprietary .cadsnip format for future modifications. Users can choose from Light, Dark, and CAD themes, and the web application is compatible with browsers like Chrome, Edge, and Firefox. There is no need for registration, and all images are stored locally on the user's device. Furthermore, a desktop version for Windows is currently being developed to expand its accessibility. This tool is designed to streamline collaboration and improve communication among construction professionals.

Description

ViewCompanion Standard serves as a robust application designed for the viewing, printing, and converting of plotter files produced by CAD programs or plotter drivers. It supports the opening of PLT files in various formats, including HPGL, HP-GL/2, KIPGL, HP-RTL, and Calcomp. Beyond plotter files, the software also accommodates the viewing, printing, and conversion of Adobe PDF, CGM, Autodesk DWF, and Gerber files. A key highlight of ViewCompanion is its capability to transform files into multiple other formats, enhancing versatility. Users can also utilize precise measurement tools that allow for accurate distance and area calculations, with a feature to snap to drawing geometry for increased accuracy. Additionally, if the drawings are not displayed at a 1:1 scale, the measurement tools can be calibrated for accurate results. Moreover, ViewCompanion enables users to enrich their files with annotations, incorporating various markup elements such as stamps, revision clouds, text notes, dimension lines, area measurements, barcodes, symbols, and images, thereby enhancing the overall functionality and usability of the application. This comprehensive suite of features makes ViewCompanion an invaluable tool for professionals working with intricate design files.
