What is F/X CAD? (6:48)

  • Only for Land F/X users (requires an active Land F/X license)
  • Command-limited version of AutoCAD (OEM)
  • Similar to AutoCAD LT
  • Sold and supported by us
  • Requires us to change the name – but it's a genuine AutoCAD engine
  • PC only (run on Mac through Parallels or VMWare Fusion)

Can:

  • Open/Save any version of DWG, DXF, DGN
  • Geolocate plans for export
  • Insert raster images
  • Import/Export PDF
  • Use Live Maps
  • Auto-complete Command Line
  • View proxy objects (Civil 3D, Architectural, Mechanical)
  • Run any AutoCAD command designers use regularly
  • Use Sheet Set Manager
  • Access 3D Connection for SketchUp, Rhino, and Revit
  • Customize interface and shortcuts
  • Get you direct support from us!
  • Install on two machines for the same person

 

Can't:

  • Run AutoLISP scripts or other add-ons
  • Run without a Land F/X License
  • Use AutoCAD's Rendering, Lighting, or 3D commands
  • Be installed on more than two machines, or have a second installation used by another person

13:21 – 17:15: Pricing

17:16 – 19:49: Who Should Use It?

  • Those who are dedicated Land F/X users and will be maintaining their Land F/X license long-term
  • Sole practitioner or small firm looking to reduce costs, used to using AutoCAD LT or AutoCAD without add-ons
  • Mid-or large-size firm looking to reduce costs by having some users on F/X CAD, and only those trained in Civil on Civil 3D
  • Anybody who prefers to update every 2 to 3 years and wants to remain on a perpetual license
  • Anybody wanting to stay up to date at a reduced cost, with the security of knowing F/X CAD will only be released when it's confirmed compatible with Land F/X
  • Those who've experienced the difference between other CAD support and Land F/X support

  • Easier to send and receive files from other firms
  • Cost easier on budget
  • New features each year
