When you open the drawing you are presented with a bunch of options. I am attaching a file for you to tryout in sheet cam. I have no option for custom scale factor. Are you talking about when you open sheetcam having a bunch of options. My advice is try it and you will be amazed at how simple it is.Thanks for the fast reply. Much faster that measuring to lay out holes in parts. Then remove the template and drill the holes. Lay it on the part, center punch the X marks. Make an X at each point, and then print it to scale. I draw the layout as I want to place holes in a panel or part. I also use it for making templates for hole layout. With Auto CAD it may take an hour to do the same thing. It's so simple you can draw it, post it, and start cutting it within a few minutes. modifications if desired, and then save it as a cut program.

You draw it in Delta Cad, and then open the DXF drawing in another software program called Pro Motion Nest (available through Wes Can Systems Ltd), then make lead in, cutting order, etc. I primarily use the DXF drawings to create cut programs for plasma cutting machines. It only opens on the one it was drawn on, but if you save it as a DXF drawing it will open on any computer or any cad program including Auto CAD. If saving it as a DC file, it will not open on another computer. I have it on three of my own computers, and what I have noticed is that even though it has the same version printed on the CD after it loads it displays a different version. It is so easy to use that I gave it to many of my co-workers. But I found another 10 copies at Odds & Ends before they went out of business. I bought the last 6 copies of it from my local Walmart, and have not seen it there since. I found the Delta Cad software at Walmart on CD. The more you use this product, the more you will love it! I can't believe that it is only $39.95! Deltacad takes you down the simplest, straightest, easiest road to creating your 2D drawing projects, and for that I am grateful. Just for the record, don't try to call software developers to fix your computer problems as one of these reviewers did.that isn't Deltacads problem, it's not Autocads problem, it's not Turbocads problem, it's YOUR problem! With every software purchase there is always some learning that is associated with it, doesn't matter what it is. I have challenged Autocad users to a timed race at drawing somewhat complicated drawings and have kicked their butt every time! They may not offer you all of the bells and whistles that Autocad does, but they give you the functions that are most commonly used. Deltacad offers you the same ease of use so that when (or IF) you choose to use those high-end programs you at least have some knowledge of basic cad. I am a Machining Technology Instructor at a North Texas College and found that the best way to teach people machining technique is to develop a simple 'Basic' understanding that they can easily learn and build on. I was surprised at the amount of criticism that was written on this product! I have been using Deltacad for over 4 years now and have 'sold it' to many others after showing them how easy it is to use.
