Hey I'm new to this web site. I'm currently studying engineering. I'm
yet to do cad. so I was wondering which programs (for free preferably,
if any) would you be able to view cad. drawings with, as I have
downloaded a drawing and cant view it

Many thanks

Hi D,

There is alot of drawing packages on the net, you will most likley need
one that reconizes .DXF format.

Check these 2 sites out and see if they work for you.

Hello,
have a look at http://www.qcad.org/ . 25 Years ago I used to be a
mechanical engineer (stress and strain) and instructor on
Infographics CamX . Today, beeing a little worn out at the edges, I
use QCad frequently. It is 2-D and handles .dxf . It's many facilities
are grouped and managed in a way to make it not too overcrowded. It
costs USD 37.- on-line and is available in English. There is quite a
community and an extensive documentation in the net. Once You get the
knack of it, it can be operated very intuitionally.

Greetings and good luck.
