3.12.1 Only saves in R15(2000/LT200)

Do you have a question you want to ask an existing QCAD user about QCAD and what you can do with it? Do you want to know if a particular feature exists? This is the place to ask.

3.12.1 Only saves in R15(2000/LT200)

Post by andrew.provost » Fri Nov 13, 2015 10:51 pm

Hi,

I am new to Linux and QCAD. reading the help files it states that QCAD by default saves in 2013 DWG or DXF format, but it does not. I did opt out of the two trial add ons because I am using it on a trial basis, to see if it will fulfill my needs. I swear that before canceling these trial add ons I test opened a AutoCAD LT 2013 file and after I could not. Do you force people to purchase to look and newer than 2000 file available in the free version? How can I get 2013 functionality back? DO I need to uninstall and reinstall?

Thank you for all of your time and efforts.

To try out QCAD Professional, please do NOT remove the QCAD Professional add-on.
Removing the QCAD Professional add-on leaves you with the free QCAD Community Edition which indeed only supports DXF R15 (see also http://www.qcad.org/en/qcad-documentation/qcad-features).

To try QCAD Professional, please download and install one of the packages at:
http://www.qcad.org/en/qcad-downloads-trial

You can then try QCAD Professional without any restrictions other than the time limit.
