IrfanView
IrfanView is a quick, lightweight, and innovative FREEWARE graphic viewer available for Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, and 10, intended for non-commercial use. It aims to balance simplicity for newcomers with robust capabilities for experienced users. Unlike many other graphic viewers that often replicate features and interfaces from established programs like ACDSee and IrfanView itself, IrfanView prioritizes the development of original and intriguing functionalities. It was the pioneering Windows graphic viewer globally to support Multiple (animated) GIFs, and it was also among the first to offer Multipage TIF and Multiple ICO support. The software includes features like lossless JPEG rotation, cropping, and EXIF date adjustments, even in batch processing. Users can create slideshows that can be saved as EXE/SCR files or burned onto CDs, and it supports batch conversion with sophisticated image processing for all files. Additionally, IrfanView accommodates embedded color profiles in JPG and TIF files, all while ensuring no registry changes occur without explicit user consent. Its commitment to unique features and user empowerment makes it stand out in the realm of graphic viewers.

3D-Tool
With 3D-Tool, you have the ability to examine 3D models without the need for a costly CAD system. Its easy-to-use interface and straightforward operation eliminate the necessity for any advanced CAD expertise. Basic mouse functions enable users to zoom in, rotate models, display or hide components and assemblies, as well as generate cross-sections and exploded views. Additionally, 3D-Tool allows for the printing of scale-accurate drawings, modification or removal of drawing elements, and the addition of dimensions and annotations. The software supports 2D drawings in formats such as DXF, DWG, and HPGL, and the Premium version extends compatibility to drawings from CATIA and SolidWorks. This makes 3D-Tool an excellent choice for coordinating projects both internally within a company and externally with clients and suppliers. Furthermore, 3D-Tool can export models as executable EXE files or DDD files suitable for the 3D-Tool Free Viewer, both of which include the versatile 3D-Tool tool palette. It also generates 3D PDF files, compatible with the commonly used Adobe Acrobat Reader, ensuring that 3D models can be accessed by users who may not wish to install specialized software. This flexibility enhances collaboration and communication across various stakeholders involved in the design process.

PloView
This HP describes PloView, a series of converter and viewer products that display, edit and convert various graphic files (HP GL, HP-GL/2 and HP RTL), as well as the PloView series products. PloView allows you to view the drawings in the HPGL/Vector/image file. PloView offers the same powerful input editing functions as 2D-CAD. This makes it easy to create other drawings and divert design drawings. The standard paper size is used to determine the paper size. The paper orientation is automatically determined as Portrait or Landscape. If the printer doesn't support the paper size or the printer cannot change the paper orientation, don't select it. If the output drawing size exceeds that of the paper size, choose the maximum paper size and adjust the scale automatically so that the drawing size matches the paper size.
