HOUSTON, TX -- (MARKET WIRE) -- Jan 27, 2012 -- Intergraph has published a new video overview for CADWorx DraftPro, its new intelligent AutoCAD®-based 2D plant design and layout solution available free via download. The video overview at www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL7E40D63706F54141 describes the features of CADWorx DraftPro, which uses the same piping specifications as CADWorx Plant Professional and works with all supported versions of AutoCAD. The software is always 100% CADWorx and 100% free and can be downloaded at www.cadworxdraftpro.com. If a user at some point decides to move to 3D design, the user can convert CADWorx DraftPro specifications to CADWorx Plant Professional at that time.

CADWorx DraftPro is specification driven and comes with hundreds of ready-to-use specifications in metric and imperial formats and over 60,000 piping components. Users can quickly and easily generate components on-the-fly as they are needed, and the built-in intelligence takes the guesswork out of placing piping components. Items easily connect and piping automatically breaks when the designer inserts components. With CADWorx DraftPro, the designer can quickly draw elevations and sections of layouts and produce accurate, customizable bills of material of the design. The software comes with multiple languages and the files can be easily adapted to any language.

The software was featured in an interview in the January 9th edition of upFront.eZine, a leading CAD industry online magazine. To read the article, visit http://www.upfrontezine.com/2012/upf-717.htm.
