The tool pages, the drawing viewer, the measuring, quantity and export code, and the page layout are written for this site.

Libraries and files

The DWG and DXF reader is the open-source library acadrust, compiled to WebAssembly and used without changes. It is under the Mozilla Public License 2.0, which asks that the library’s source stays available: it is at the link in the table, and the exact licence text is in the acadrust MPL-2.0 licence file. The PDF reader is Mozilla’s pdf.js under the Apache licence, whose licence file ships with it at /vendor/pdfjs/LICENSE. Sample drawings used in our tests come from the MIT-licensed ACadSharp project and from drawings we generated ourselves.
