Autodesk DWG TrueView

What it is

Autodesk DWG TrueView is free Windows desktop software for opening and working with DWG drawings. It can view both 2D and 3D DWG files, and measurement tools are included. The software also converts DWG files for compatibility with earlier AutoCAD versions. DXF support is listed, giving users another supported drawing format to open. The product is centered on viewing, measuring, and converting files rather than editing them. Its Free plan is listed as free. Windows is the only platform identified in the supplied details, and no Android, iOS, or web version is listed. Markup and annotation are not supported, so users who need to add notes or drawing comments will not find those functions here. The product is available from Autodesk’s DWG TrueView overview page.
