Topic Title

Somebody sometime back on this forum had mentioned I look at Autodesk's Impression program...well, I finally did.
It's really awesome.
I downloaded the trial version...fully functional for 35 hours of actual work time.
I exported some design drawings from DataCAD to DWG and began learning...after watching the video tutorial.

The results for a zoning presentation in New York State are posted below.



To purchase is $495...however, it appears that once Impression 2 comes out later this year, that it will not be offered as a standalone product, so I will be buying soon to add to our array of software.

I forgot...

This took about 4 hours total.
I set it up to be on a 24x36 canvas at 1/8"=1'-0" scale.
I generated a JPG and inserted that into a DataCAD AEC that had a titleblock and drawing titles.
Then I printed to a PDF (which was 22MB's...ouch) and sent to reprographics for printing.

Yeeaaahhh...

I was pretty dissatisfied with a few attempts of accomplishing this in DataCAD.
