Have you ever heard of PDF files? They seem
to be pretty universal these days - kind of like a jpg file. You see,
you just print using the PDF printer and voila, you have a PDF file that even
your mother could open and print out. Costs a whole lot less than buying
a new computer and IV copy./

But seriously, the main reason that we stopped using IDW's was the lack
of a good viewing/printing utility. The guys on the assembly line need to be
able to view and print the assembly drawings of what they are building.

works for us.
Design in IV
Detail in idw.
Plot and check.
Make changes &
convert to acad.
Clean up dims and layers.
Back check and ship.
I agree that Acad produces better 2d drawings and is easier to work with.
There are some cool things though that idw's can do that acad cannot. Iso.
views, easy section generation. Center lines are a brease etc.
As far as
assembly's go if there big dont even bother with idws. Get the views you need
and work in Acad. Unless you like to watch paint dry.
Rumor. Maybe better idw or acad link or acad like interface in 7?
One thing I can say. If they would have left the 2d side associative to
acad they would rule the world right now.

Ron,
We finally ended up going the pdf
route.
It's a pitty that the Great IV6 needs a second
package to get basic CAD work (read: printouts) done.
