CAD6starter
CAD6starter is the free entry to the CAD6 series and contains basic drawing and labeling functions. It can open, edit, save, and print all drawings created by any CAD6 edition.
Use CAD6starter to create elaborate technical drawings with the highest accuracy and all important structural elements such as layers, pens, pages, groups, and blocks. For simple scaled drawing, you can work in the model space at a scale of 1:1 and then generate different scales using mappings. A drawing can contain multiple pages. Hatchings and dimensions automatically adapt to changes in the drawing.
CAD6starter may be used free of charge and unconditionally for private use, educational purposes, as well as commercial use.
All programs of the CAD6 series are 100% data-compatible.
