Development of 1GES Interface for MicroCADDs GCD

The term IGES stands for Initial Graphics Exchange Specification. Normally CAD packages like AutoCAD support the standard IGES format for storing the graphical database of a drawing. But few CAD packages like MicroCADDs GCD (product of COMPUTER VISION SOFTWARE) do not support the standard IGES format. So it was considered a worthwhile effort to develop an IGES interface for MicroCADDs GCD CAD package. Thus drawings created using GCD can be converted as AutoCAD drawings through this IGES interface developed in-house.13; 13; Even if we plan in future to have a standard software platform for CAD applications, our recent efforts can be treated as a case study in that direction and will bear fruit at that time.13; 13; This interface developed in-house doesn't come along with the GCD CAD software but is available optionally for a suitable price
