DXF viewer

Post by YahooArchive »

We publish DXF files for our products, and finally found a free viewer that lets
you query the file.

Most DXF viewers I've tried let you view the file, but that's about it. What
was needed was one that would let you find out where features like holes are.

ABviewer lets you do that, and its a short download, and I didn't have to open
the help file to "query" the positions of the features.

PS

After 3 tries to download a demo of Visio, with its 250MB I gave up trying

and AutoCADs host of downloaded junk just to have it not recognize the DXFs we
publish

I'm real sold on ABviewer (<8MB), might even send them some money to keep them
in business.

Wheres the link for the free version? I can only find a link to a standard
version with a $66 single user license.

Answering my own question. There is no 'free' version, but you can download and
use the standard version for a limited time for evaluation. Some features are
disabled.
