PowerCADD Forum

My 2023 Vectorworks architect has an excellent .dwg translator.
QCAD is only $40 and using it solves the translation issues, it does have many AutoCAD Lite features and can be used for initial floor plans to be sent to engineers for their use as backgrounds for their work.

I installed QCAD Professional as an alternative to AutoCAD Lt, it seems to be able to do most everything ACL does and should meet my needs for
a .dwg/ dfx open/use/save package. I will use this to mainly open AutoCAD files from engineers and to check VW translations into AutoCAD sent to engineers.

John,
How good is the roll loading procedure compared to your (our) last printer? reviews have not been very good.

Todd has said that PC10 WILL open PC9 files.

Very well said Chip.

My two cents here is that PC should be compatible with Mac OS 12 onward, and everything should be done to continue to develop and offer Wild Tools.

Todd,
Thank you, your response was most helpful.

Todd,
What will be the expectations regarding PC10 ability to open earlier versions of PC and reading/translating .dwg files?

Greg,
I am actually considering both the Epson an d Canon 24" printers although my 24" HP has been very good to me in the past. The Canon Image Prograph TA-20 seems like it would do the job for me, however I may have to go to NYC to see it it person before buying.

John,
1. Is your HP directly connected to the computer via USB or other?
2. I am running OS 11.6 Big Sur, is a driver available from HP or do I need to download from the HP site?
