DWGgateway™
is a free AutoCAD®
download for AutoCAD users who do not want to upgrade
to the latest version of AutoCAD, but who wish to continue
to exchange DWG files with partners, customers and suppliers
that use different versions of the AutoCAD DWG file format.
In addition, newer versions of AutoCAD will only allow you
to save your files in the more recent DWG file formats. This
presents a different set of challenges. If you cannot save
DWG files to an earlier version of AutoCAD, then you might
also encounter problems with CNC machines or other programs
that require as input an older version of the DWG file format.
DWGgateway solves
these problems by enabling you to open DWG files created by
AutoCAD versions R14 through the latest version, and then
edit them and save them as any version of AutoCAD, from R2.5
to the latest version. This unique capability helps you maintain
file and design-process compatibility, win business and save
time - all while avoiding expensive AutoCAD upgrade costs
or annual subscription fees.
DWGviewer™
software – also known as eDrawings™
software for AutoCAD users – is a free tool for viewing
native DWG and DXF files, as well as native SolidWorks®
software files. DWGviewer simplifies the sharing of design
concepts across multiple CAD environments and with non-CAD
users.
DWGeditor is a
standalone editing tool for SolidWorks users and their colleagues,
who occasionally need to create, share, and edit native DWG
files. As a former AutoCAD user, you'll find that DWGeditor
offers an easy-to-use, familiar interface and it allows you
to maintain legacy 2D data without having to install or upgrade
to the latest version of AutoCAD. Three DWGeditor
licenses are provided with each SolidWorks license,
so you can offer DWGeditor to two of your coworkers and save
on costs, while protecting your organization's investment
in DWG data.
