Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Comparison of Cadd

Hi,
My take on the situation is not WHAT specific program you use, but WHAT
file compatibility you have! In my business, I use AutoCad as MOST but not
all architects use autocad or have the ability to output autocad files.

If you use a program that can import they file structure of the generally
used files in your area of expertise, then go for it. It doesn't matter
that much which brand of cad program that you use. If you are only going
to do in-house drawings, then it is simply a matter of choosing a program
that suits you.

Hope this helps.
