Is it possible to use ArchiCAD as editor of dwg files? Sometimes I need to edit dwg files (only 2D, hatches, layouts, blocks) and do not want to buy autocad LT. Any tips or converter templates to keep source dwg after saving intacted?

You can download and use 2 AutoCAD clones for FREE:
1. Dassault Draft Sight
2. IMSI DoubleCAD XT
Do a search in your internet browser.

When you import your AutoCAD 2D drawings into ArchiCAD, you can make revisions as your autocad drawing will get converted to ArchiCAD lines and arc's.

I do not want to use even free alternatives. New program, new problems to solve.
