What it is

Easy CAD Viewer is a paid standalone Windows program for viewing, printing, plotting, annotating, converting, and managing DWG, DXF, and DWF drawings without AutoCAD. It handles 2D and 3D drawings with bird’s-eye, dynamic 3D, full-screen, quick-view, zoom, pan, and layer controls. Users can rotate drawings and adjust line weights, line types, pen styles, point styles, and layer properties. Measurement tools provide geometric information such as distance, length, mass, and volume. The viewer creates searchable vector PDF and SVG files and can render drawings to BMP, JPG, GIF, PNG, TIFF, and TGA. DWG, DXF, and DWF compatibility covers AutoCAD Release 9 through AutoCAD 2020, including protected and encrypted files. The listed price is $69 per once for one license, with lower per-license prices for larger quantities and a $2000 site license. A 15-day trial and free lifetime upgrades are listed.
