IntelliCAD® is the intelligent choice for architects, engineers, designers - virtually any professional who creates or uses CAD drawings. Here is why: Unrivaled DWG File Format Compatibility IntelliCAD's native file format is .DWG, so when you open an existing DWG file there's no file conversion and no data loss. We provide industry standard compatibility with an AutoCAD command set, as well programming api's such as LISP and SDS (IntelliCAD's C programming API). That means you can get to work immediately using the DWG files, commands and applications you rely on. Exceptional Productivity IntelliCAD offers many unique productivity features, including the ability to open multiple drawings at once; a Drawing Explorer" that lets you review and exchange drawing content with drag-and-drop ease; and visual customization of menus and toolbars -- no programming required! And thanks to its ActiveX integration, you can insert IntelliCAD drawings (or just parts of them) into a Microsoft Office application file such as a Visio® Technical Edition schematic. Affordability For the first time ever, you can buy a heavy-duty CAD program that's compatible with the .DWG file format and industry standard applications at mass-market pricing. Other feature-rich, low-cost CAD programs have tried to create their own standard as opposed to leveraging the existing .DWG standard. IntelliCAD's low price makes it affordable to anyone who creates and uses .DWG files. C, LISP, and VBA Development If you have existing applications that were built using the ADS or AutoLISP libraries, you can quickly port them to IntelliCAD, using the same languages and functions you are used to. IntelliCAD also includes a VB object model to implement custom programs quickly within your organization.     Compatibility 3D surface commands ACIS Object Display  ACIS 3D solid modeling   (Included in the Pro Plus Version) XREF Clipping Complex Linetypes TrueType Fonts Industry standard SDS support LISP support (including DCL) Support for industry standard commands Digitizer Support Native DWG support, including V2.5-2005  Save as DWF - Export to web Industry standard menu (.MNU) and script (.SCR) files Raster image display (Included in the Pro and Pro Plus Versions) Productivity Tabs for paper-space layouts Drawing Recovery and Audit Entity Properties Toolbar Entity Lineweight Support Birds-eye Aerial View (Included in the Pro and Pro Plus Versions) Xref Manager (Included in the Pro and Pro Plus Versions) User Profiles Manager (Included in the Pro Plus Versions) Block Manager and Bonus Toolkit  (Included in Pro Plus Versions) Fly-over snapping Photorealistic 3-D rendering (Included in the Pro and Pro Plus Versions) Quick Render OpenGL rendering (Included in the Pro and Pro Plus Versions) ActiveX support including in-place editing Drawing Explorer" for managing layers, blocks, line types, and more Work with multiple open drawings (MDI) Real Time Pan & Zoom Right-mouse click to edit properties of multiple selected entities Script recorder Unlimited undo/redo COM object model for access through Visual Basic and C++ VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) (Included in the Pro and Pro Plus Version) Visual customization of menus and toolbars   System Requirements You need the following software and hardware to install and run IntelliCAD.
