Alternative to Composer

Alternative to Composer

Alternative to Composer

(OP)
Hi,

I was wondering if anyone might be able to help me sort my problem here.

I have autocad LT 2005 to make some drawings. Now because i've got some drawings that i want a friend of mine to check and perhaps do a bit of markup thing on my drawing so that he can send back and i can fix my drawing. Now the problem is he doesn't have a copy of autocad LT 2005. And it's a bit too expensive for me to buy him a copy. I'm also aware of the fact that there is another software that allows us to do drawing mark-ups (i think it's called composer).

Instead of using composer, is there any other way that might allow my friend to help me check the drawing i send to him for marking up purpose. You know something that he can draw a circle and say "this is now right, it should be that". I was trying to ask him to use the powerpoint but i had a lot of hard time to do that. i mean i can bring it to powerpoint but i want to make the drawing as a background so that nobody would accidentally move the drawing and hence it'd be a mess once you have put all the circle or rectangular here and there on top of the drawing.

Any solution or ideas are greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance

Jojon0,

I think You are looking for a third party program. Adobe Acrobat professional 7.0 would work (*.pdf converted), or Corel Draw (*.tif). Or You look for a programm, that can import *.dwf files.
There are a lot of solutions.

Send him a red pen and a self addressed stamped envelope.  Or, fax it to him and have him fax back his markups.
