The table does not include software that is still in development (beta software). For all-purpose 3D programs, see Comparison of 3D computer graphics software . CAD refers to a specific type of drawing and modelling software application that is used for creating designs and technical drawings.
FreeCAD's support for the proprietary DWG file format has been problematic due to software license compatibility problems with the GNU LibreDWG library. The GNU LibreDWG library started as a real free alternative to the source-available OpenDWG library (later Teigha Converter and now ODA File Converter) and is licensed under the GPLv3 .
The primary file format for 2D and 3D drawing files created with AutoCAD is .dwg. While other third-party CAD software applications can create .dwg files, AutoCAD uniquely creates RealDWG files. [32] The drawing version code changes between AutoCAD releases. [33] Using AutoCAD, any .dwg file may be saved to a derivative format. These derivative ...

The first release of the software started with version 1.0 in December 1982. [1] The software has been continuously updated since its initial release. AutoCAD opens documents with DWG compatibility as a "DWG file format version code" where the specific version code can be found by opening the .dwg file in Windows Notepad or any text editor program.
