Overview
Canvas X is a drawing, imaging, and publishing computer software for Windows PC from ACD Systems! Well-positioned as the ultimate resource for engineers, small business owners, and technical graphics professionals seeking to communicate with confidence, the app provides a diverse, efficacy-driven design environment. This dependable software supports 64-bit operating systems and is capable of working with documents containing over 1 million objects. Catering to a wide range of professionals — from graphics designers to seismologists — Canvas X 2020 is fine-tuned for performance and rips through projects at lightning speed.
Now with optimized speed for launching, loading, and saving, the software features an enriched user experience, carefully crafted for the accessibility and comfort of longtime users. With its unique and integrated design environment, the software makes working with and combining graphical elements and high-end effects even more straightforward thanks to a variety of efficiency-motivated enhancements. Easily access commonly used functions for a smoother workflow, make effortless calculations, edit dynamically, and much more. Developed for achievement, convenience, and overall ease of use, Canvas X version 2020 presents numerous UI improvements to allow for fluid object editing.
Features and Highlights
Drawing with Precision
The app comes loaded with tools and techniques that allow you to easily create scale drawings, floor plans, architectural designs, and other technical drawings with measured precision and placement. Snap objects into exact positions relative to each other, draw from the center points of objects, define the scale for scale drawings, systematically align objects, display size information as you work, and add dimension objects.
Work with Vector and Raster Images
The product’s unique and integrated design environment makes it possible to work with and combine all graphical elements and apply high-end effects to each in a single document. Thanks to the ability to work with both vector graphics and raster images with the same powerful enhancement tools, the software users are able to create professional-looking outputs while preserving complete editing control of all graphical data.
Add Objects on the Fly
The software comes stocked with a diverse range of commonly used and specialized technical symbols. Or you can create your own from any vector, text, composite, or paint object, and add it to the Symbol Library. And if you alter a symbol in the palette, all copies of it in the document will change along with it, allowing you to maximize efficiency.
Vector Object Versatility
Experience complete flexibility while working dynamically with vector objects. The program’s adaptable Sprite technology can be used to apply image and transparency effects without rendering, allowing you to continue to edit your graphics at any time. Do more with specialized technologies, such as gradient transparency tools, vector masks, opacity effects, channel masks, and much more.
Raise the Bar with Raster Images
Design, edit and upgrade raster images with a variety of industry-leading tools and filters. Form composites, touch up photos, create and utilize transparency effects, paint, clone pixels, and more.
Communicate with CAD Files
Import native AutoCAD files, enjoy CAD-inspired dimensioning tools and edit and manipulate CAD objects. Place a 2D view of a 3D object in your document, edit the view, adjust the orientation, rotation, zoom, and lighting.
Work within Industry Standards
Create dimension objects that fully conform to existing industry and government standards, including: IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineer’s) floating-point standard, ANSI (American National Standards Institute) U.S. Product and industry standards, DIN (Deutsches Institut für Normung/German Institute for Standardization) internationally adopted standards, JIS (Japanese Industrial Standard) standards.
Thorough Text Tools
Create text, text layouts, and flow text from column to column. Control all aspects of formatting, create and save styles, apply effects to type, wrap text inside objects, repel text from objects, bind text to object paths, and enjoy a full range of text proofing and annotation tools.
Definitive Dimensions
With linear, chain, and baseline dimensioning tools, it’s easy to pinpoint horizontal, vertical, oblique, and perpendicular distances. Display size information as you draw, measure diameter, radius, angle, area, and perimeter, add dimension objects to illustrations, mark the center of arcs and ovals, and nail down the scale for scale drawings.
Painless Precision
Work with infinitesimal units of measure with certainty and control. The software’s drawing engine fully conforms to the IEEE floating-point standard used in scientific, engineering, medical, and biotechnology industries. Personalize these standard settings by editing the size of lines, gaps, text, and tolerances, modifying them for new and unique workflows, and saving them for ongoing use in similar work contexts.
Professional Publishing Results
With the tool, you can produce and share complex, leading-edge documents without the need for separate word processing or layout programs. Fully stocked with all the necessary text formatting and style tools, editing, proofing, and annotation capabilities, the app gets you finished faster.
Clear Collaboration
Save time and effort with free-flowing document exchange, enabling you to share, discuss, and develop projects with colleagues. Advanced import and export features make it possible to return annotated illustrations to specialized formats without losing data.
Share with Assurance
Assuredly share your documents with the ability to apply secure encryption and password protection to your exported PDFs. Maintain complete control over who can open, edit, and print your designs and data. Plus, CanvasX can preserve the ability to edit documents even after rendering to PDF.
Proficient Printing
Enjoy complete control over the appearance of your printed output, including color management for accuracy, optimization of image resolutions to your printer, output format options for image data to a PostScript device, multi-page documents suitable for commercial printing, and virtually any advanced image and export format.
Note: 30 days trial version.
