IsoDraw Foundation
Technical Illustrations are essential to technical publications; high-quality illustrations improve the readability of publications, reduce service and operating errors, and improve customer satisfaction. IsoDraw Foundation is designed specifically for technical illustrators. It provides all the capabilities you need to create and deliver high-quality illustrations in all required formats and media.
Capabilities and Benefits
- Boost illustrator productivity by providing specialized tools to speed common technical illustrator tasks
- Minimize both training cost and ramp-up time through an intuitive user interface
- Automatically display illustrations with the thick/thin technique–standard for technical illustrations. This technique makes illustrations much easier to understand.
- Convert 2D CAD data to perspective illustrations with an extrusion tool to create a solid body from a flat 2D view, and a tool for creating rotational surfaces from planes
- Quickly and easily create 2D animations to improve the readability of technical publications and reduce the need for long text descriptions
- Get access to over 2,200 views of standard parts. Selected parts are incorporated in the illustration in the correct orientation, perspective and size.
- Easily reuse legacy data using Arbortext IsoDraw Foundation tools for tracing photos and videos, along with a comprehensive raster editor for processing scanned images
- Support all major graphic formats: S1000D 2.3 CGM, ATA GREXCHANGE, WebCGM, CGM, SVG, PNG, JPEG, DWG, IGES, DXF, HPGL, Adobe Illustrator, WMF, EPS, TIFF, PICT, PCX, BMP, CALS Raster, Text excerpt, XML Companion Files, Interleaf ASCII and FrameMaker MIF.
- Prepare illustrations for publishing in multiple formats and for delivery in both print and electronic media
