CadStd

CadStd is a general purpose, easy to learn CAD/drafting program for creating professional quality mechanical designs, house plans, blueprints, schematics and charts utilizing ANSI drawing standards. The Lite version is free and can read any drawing created by the Pro version. CadStd Lite can export files as DXF so you can share your drawings with friends who have other CAD programs like Autocad. The Pro version can create isometric projections from orthographic views, and has powerful commands like offset, trim, fillet and chamfer. Export drawings in formats like DXF, SVG, HPGL/1 or use copy clipboard to paste images into Office and other applications. Import DXF, HPGL/1 and Gedcom files.

If you need to create drawings you can be proud to show a client, a city planning department, a government agency CadStd (Cad Standard) is your best kept secret. People will think you spent hundreds or thousands of dollars to create such a drawing. A recent customer wrote : "I have bought a number of other programs, primarily for 3d graphics...but continually come back to this great program for every project requiring drawings."
