f700es Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 I guess 'cause that is an older version while newer versions of DraftSight and DoubleCAD XT are available? These can also open current versions of .dwg as well. Active user support groups and updates help too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilbri Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 Thanks for this update. Will have a look at both and comment accordingly. Hopefully they are AutoCad compatible? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Draftsight and Doublecad XT both are completely compatible with the dwg format. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
f700es Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 If DraftSight could open .skp it would be the best 2D cad program on the planet! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
