IntelliCAD 5 supports DWG 2004 and 2005, while maintaining compatibility with previous versions of DWG back to 2.5. Import and export of DWF files, and SVG export have been added, along with numerous stability and performance enhancements.New tabs located at the bottom of the drawing area allow users to switch how they want to view their drawing. The new model tab can be used to create a drawing. When printing, users can use one or more layout tabs to design how they want the drawing to look when it is printed. The width of entities in a drawing can be controlled with the new lineweight feature. Users can assign lineweights to entities and layers, and can also specify if they are to be displayed or printed. When multiple entities overlap, a user can change the order in which they are drawn and plotted. Draw order can be used to move entities to the front, back, or on top or below of another entity. IntelliCAD 5 also includes improved solid modeling, audit and recovery of damaged files, template files, and improved printing support.
