Is the software compatible with autocad or solidworks?

Our standard Desktop CNC Machines can be run from KCam, Mach3, and EMC2. All process GCode and some process other formats such as DXF. Please see their respective websites for details. For our USB Solution our own FabCAM processes GCode, so to generate GCode from your CAD you would eitehr use a plugin for AutoCAD/Solidworks to export your design directly to GCode, or a better solution is to save your design as eitehr DXF or STL format, import into MeshCAM to design your toolpaths and then save as GCode. MeshCAM has a FabCAM GCode export format. That way you can review and edit the toolpath before committing to GCode. Hope this helps and feel free to contact us with any additional questions you may have.

I cannot speak to the Cad software but I use Adobe 6.0 and have had no issues.

Use it with Autocad and Sketchup daily. I like to switch hands once and a while to keep from wearing one out. Seems to help.

Sorry to say, I don't know. I use another program, Designers Gallery to convert files from hus, pcs, vip, sew,jef,exp, dst into pes files and then use brother design to expand, change, modify etc.

If you go to the hp site and this specific printer, you will see in the reviews that it works just fine with AutoCAD 14. Considering most people who buy it are architects and designers, it would be kind of silly to NOT support AutoCAD.

I can not help you because I use windowns 7 64 bit, Asus motherboard I7. Autodesk works normally as well as other applications graphs.hugs,

Don't now what "adobe cc" is. The NVIDIA Quadro 2000 video card made a dramatic, positive change to the ability of our computer to reduce regen time for large CAD files. We experienced many crashes in Solidworks with large files, 500MB-1GB, before NVIDIA. I recommend NVIDIA.

Hi Jane, I hope what follows will help in your purchase of this software. I saved it to my hard drive with no problems noted. I am willing to say that you can save or back-up the program to a DVD or other drive that you desire with no problems that I can see. The software is still available to me on Amazon for download with the serial number. I purchased it Oct 2013. I use it for design work for my CNC work that I do and the manufacture uses in their online classes. As far as I can tell this Designer 2D is a full working copy and I actually downloaded a trial copy Designer 19 prior to purchasing Designer 20. Good luck...there are a number of videos on this program and the help function gave me what I needed. I have two monitors so I would watch and follow the videos in learning the program.

Yes. I use it along with a G13 for AutoCAD at work. Having enter, esc, del, bksp, undo, redo, & other commands always available is a great addition. Honestly, I game at home, but I make better use of the G buttons with productivity software than I ever have in the games (not that I don't use them for those too). For repetitive, command intensive software, programmable keys are the way to go.

Yes it is. I use it for AutoCAD and Illustrator and I had to close the windows to notice.

LT is a light version. However, I received full blown autocad 2007 when ordering this project, not lt. No idea why and I'm not arguing, as it loaded and works. I did get one warning that there are "known compatibility issues" however, I have had no issues with a new computer running windows 7 .. good luck!

Yes, it is great running Autocad, Revit and all programas for rendering like rhino or lumion! Great product!

Yes. I've loaded and used this software on my windows 7 computer for over a year. every feature that I've needed functions seamlessly. I use it to edit photographs for engineerinig and metalurgy work. I have not used the more "artsy" features, but I'm confident in what I have done, that it will perform as designed. No worries, no regrets Good software.

Yes, this item is compatible with a lot of drawing programs including Photoshop, Illustrator, Paint Tool SAI, etc.

I would have to say it's 99% YES. though I do not have SolidWorks, i have seen many a demo with people using the larger models, so this one must work as well. and Yes there are Windows 8 drivers. (32 or 64 bit)

Yes it will run AutoCad. I run Solidworks, SolidCam and Numrotoplus which all three are very demanding softwares for strong hardware. Of course you can always get a better stronger laptop but I like the size and weight. I travel and dock it in a docking station when I'm home. I run 2-24" HP Elite displays.
