We convert paper documents into dimensionally accurate AutoCAD (dwg or dxf) files. Scanned drawings, blueprints and pdf files are manually traced by trained AutoCAD draughters, and checked continually by licensed architects for accuracy and completeness.

We use standard conventions for all layers, or we can use your layers, standards, title blocks and plotter configurations at no additional charge.

We offer top quality cad conversions at the most affordable rates in the market and are the online cad drafting service you can trust.

Some services offer a paper to cad conversions service that uses software to process a scanned image into a cad format. This method works well for archiving older drawings. However, it inherently lacks accuracy and is not ideal for building or construction purposes. Many aspects of the conversion can be distorted, including line scale and fragmentation.

If you want a workable AutoCAD file that can be readily passed on to contractors or clients, manual tracing is the only method that insures this quality.

All our drawings are precision redrafted by hand and contains ;

• Accurate layer information.
• Accurate text that can be edited.
• Accurate line type that can be edited.
