## What is PocketCAD?

PocketCAD opens DXF drawings on iPhone and iPad so you can review them, add quick markups, check shapes in 3D and share them as PDF.

Note: the app's interface is currently in Japanese only.

- OPEN DXF AS IS
- Open DXF files from Mail, Files and other apps
- Japanese text (Shift_JIS / UTF-8) is supported
- Entities that could not be read are listed with the reason
- Your original DXF file is never overwritten

- QUICK MARKUPS
Lines, circles, arcs, ellipses, splines, rectangles, regular polygons, polygons, text and leaders.
- Tap to place a point, or keep your finger down and drag to explore: the shape and the snap target are shown while you move
- An option offsets the point above your finger so it is never hidden
- Snap to endpoints, midpoints, centers, intersections and the grid; ortho mode; numeric input (length, angle, coordinates)
- Move, copy, rotate, scale, mirror and grip editing

- SEE IT IN 3D
- Extrude closed shapes into prisms, pyramids or frustums
- Revolve a shape around an axis
- Values you cannot point at, such as a box height, are entered right next to the shape; confirm to reuse the last value
- Orbit the 3D view with one finger

- SHARE AS PDF
Choose paper size, orientation, scale and line weights, preview, then share. Monochrome output is available.

- NO ACCOUNT
No sign-up or sign-in. Drawings are stored only on your device or in your own iCloud Drive.

DWG files are not supported; export them to DXF first. No ads are shown while you edit a drawing (ads appear on the PDF export and settings screens).
