MacCAD: BPT-Pro
and EXDXF-Pro, new CAD tools for Illustrator
The folks at Baby Universe Inc have shared news with us about their
new CAD products for Adobe Illustrator, versions 7-9 on both the
Macintosh and Windows platforms. Both products are powerful new
CAD plug-ins.
BPT-Pro
Designed for those folks who have never really needed a CAD program
and desire not to spend the money and time needed to learn one,
BPT-Pro offers a wide range of CAD drawing tools for Adobe Illustrator
users. The program allows you to develop fully dimensioned plans,
including the ability to dimension curved lines.
Along with Dimension tools, BPT-Pro
adds Radius/Diameter tools, Fillet tools, Angle tool and Slant and
Arc tools. To view the new palettes added to Illustrator with this
plugin click here (and follow
links). BPT-Pro cost $89US.
EXDXF-Pro
As can be guessed by the name, EXDFX-Pro is another plugin dealing
with the import and export of Autocad DXF files in Adobe Illustrator.
This application claims to improve the import/export accuracy over
other rival products. The plugin allows you to set up options for
the import/export process. EXDFX-Pro cost $89US.
To learn more about these products visit the Baby
Universe website.
