Arcv2CAD is a Windows program designed for converting ESRI Shapefiles and ArcView project files into standard CAD formats.
Preserve
The software transfers attribute fields from the shapefile’s DBF component into CAD layers, text annotations or blocks. Users can decide how these pieces appear in the output file, maintaining context for each feature. Moreover, it is possible to convert data between different coordinate systems.
As mentioned before, you can work with ArcView maps by extracting shapefile references and layer settings. The tool automatically identifies the project’s data sources and batch-converts them. This saves time for you migrating legacy GIS projects into a CAD-compatible format.
Customizing output
It is possible to fine-tune the output by selecting layer mappings, text placements, symbol sizes and color coding. The utility supports attribute labeling as text entities and custom placement rules to match your preferences. On top of that, advanced users can create templates for recurring export tasks. As for editing your maps and geographical schemes, you may try QGIS.
