Caddie Architectural provides you with the tools you need to make the most of the time you get to design.

Sharing information is easy with Caddie; no time wasting conversions necessary, just save and load your drawings in the industry standard DWG drawing format.

Caddie Architectural Provides You With:

Industry standard DWG drawing format
When you draw and model using Caddie you can be secure in the knowledge that you are working in the industry standard DWG drawing format that makes sharing drawings and information easy. No need to import and export, simply load and save your files for seamless compatibility without losing information or changing your drawings, whether working with fellow Caddie users or professionals using other DWG based CAD systems. In addition to DWG, Caddie also supports DXF and other formats making it easy to incorporate Ordnance Survey information and manufacturer’s details within your drawings, as well as keeping your clients up to date with your latest schemes.
