32-bit Architectural View Manipulation and Image Processing for DataCAD®

Avon, CT 06001 -- May 28, 1997 -- DATACAD LLC, the developer of DataCAD architectural design and drafting solutions, has released DC Viewer, the first of three Microsoft Windows 95/NT-based software products aimed at professional architects, interior designers, builders and remodelers. DC Viewer is an architectural view manipulation and image processing program for DataCAD, a 2D/3D architectural design program used by over 180,000 design professionals worldwide.

DC Viewer allows users to dynamically view any 2D or 3D DataCAD drawing without modifying the original drawing file. You can dynamically move around and through DataCAD drawings, change views, and perform rotation, panning and zooming operations. Users can also set up multiple views to compare drawings side by side as easily as with paper documents. For visualization, users can perform hidden line removal functions and shade the model to present drawings precisely. A unique PaperView™ function enables designers to preview and edit drawings before printing; unlike Print Preview options in other applications, all navigation and processing options are still available

When the designer is satisfied with the visual result, it can be copied to the Windows clipboard as a vector or bitmap image for use in presentations, business documents, or marketing proposals. It can also be saved as a VRML version 2.0 for Internet/web page use, or output to any Windows compatible printer or plotter.

Share Drawings with Management and Clients
DC Viewer allows DataCAD designers to share drawings with anyone who may need to see them, from senior management to clients, without running DataCAD or permanently changing the drawings in any way. Run DC Viewer on any PC or laptop for a design review session with a client or for faster approvals from management.
