🛠️ What You Can Do with JETCAM CAD Viewer-:

The viewer is designed as a lightweight and fast tool for everyday tasks.

  • Inspect Designs: Use the built-in measurement tools to check the scale and dimensions of parts directly on the screen.

  • Manage Complex Files: The latest v4 update allows you to show or hide individual layers within DXF files, making it easier to isolate and examine specific elements like bend lines.

  • Navigate Files Easily: It provides a tree view for browsing local drives and mapped network locations, with a thumbnail tray for a visual overview of all CAD files in a folder.

  • Works Offline: The application does not require an internet connection to function and does not contain any ads or spyware.

💡 What to Keep in Mind-:

  • 2D Focus: This viewer is specifically for 2D CAD files. It does not support 3D model viewing.

  • Viewing Only: It is designed for displaying, measuring, and inspecting existing CAD files. It does not have editing or modeling capabilities.

  • System Memory: For optimal performance with folders containing hundreds of files, using the 64-bit version on a 64-bit operating system is recommended as it can utilize more system memory.
