CADSlide by Etecad enhances architectural presentations by providing an intuitive interface for seamless slide creation and management, perfect for professionals seeking efficiency.

CADSlide is a simple and powerful Windows application for managing Autocad Slides (SLD) , Slide Libraries (SLB) and Hatch Patterns (PAT). CADSlide not only allows you to operate with slides and slide libraries the same way as Windows Explorer works but allows to view slides without AutoCAD, to print graphically complete libraries and even make Adobe PDF files out of them.
The CADSlide will allow you to:
- Display directories of slides and complete slide libraries with thumbnails.
- Create new library.
- Copy or move slides from a directory to a library.
- Extract or delete slides from library.
- Copy or move slides from a library to another library.
- Convert a slide(s) to DXF, WMF, EMF, BMP, PNG or JPEG file format.
- Make a slide from BMP file.
- Copy a slide to Windows clipboard as WMF format ( the easy way to import slide into MS Office or AutoCAD as a vector image).
- Print a slide (as well as complete library).
- Make Adobe PDF file (without any additional software) out of a slide or complete library.
- Display a hatch patterns file (*.pat).
- Edit a hatch pattern and immediately view results.
- Make Adobe PDF file out of hatch patterns file.
