Creates atlas-like layouts automatically from the objects in your DWG. By using an existing layout as a template, the application generates multiple new layouts, each one focused on a specific object or group of objects. The view in every layout is automatically centered and adjusted to the extent of the selected elements, ensuring consistent scale and presentation.

Available for AutoCAD, BricsCAD, ZWCAD and GstarCAD.
