    Posted: 16.May.2011 at 09:45

Hi All,

My predecessor did 90% of his drawing on Caddie and then File Save as into Autocad Format. This affected the fonts etc. and needed cleaning up once in the .dwg format. Needless to say, with him leaving, so did the dongle (with licence) for Caddie Angry.
 
Does anyone know of a freeware that can at least view the Caddie drawings?
First prize would obviously be to converted these files into Autocad files as well. 
 
Thanks

Request a free trail version here.  When you get it do all your converting before the time limit expires.

Forget to say that I'm in South Africa and form past experiences there are't many international comapanies will to send stuff to this neck of the woods.
But I'll give it a try.

I just took a second look at the link I provided.  It seems you CAN download the trial version from the website.  Go check it out yourself.
