Palm Software

Does AutoDesk have any palm software for viewing drawings? I did a
search but couldn't find anything.

I know of no software currently that does that but a work. A work around if you have adobe acrobat 5.0 is to load the palm reader for acrobat and then print the drawing as a pdf and convert to palm format.

PalmOS specific, or handheld in general?
If not PalmOS, look at http://www.pocketcad.com/

I just saw an announcement of a Palm compatible CAD program. I don't know
whether it can open, save, import, or export AutoCAD DWGs.

It can export DXF's, but nothing on their site indicates it can import anything.

I downloaded a trial version.
No import capabilities that I could find.

Thanks for the response.
