#### 2D and 3D drafting with AutoCAD-style commands and AutoLISP

Fancy Pencil is a drafting program that works like AutoCAD: the same commands,
the same prompts, and your AutoLISP routines.

* Draw lines, polylines, circles, arcs, ellipses, splines, helixes and hatches
* Edit with Move, Copy, Rotate, Scale, Mirror, Offset, Trim, Extend, Fillet,
  Chamfer, Array, Stretch, Align and grips
* Text, dimensions, leaders and multileaders, in text and dimension styles
* Layers, linetypes, lineweights, colors, blocks and draw order
* 3D solids: boxes, cylinders, spheres, extrude, revolve, sweep, loft,
  union, subtract, intersect and slice; Platonic solids and wireframe struts
* Layouts with viewports, and plotting to PDF or any printer at true scale
* AutoLISP: about 250 functions, defun c: commands, ssget filters, *error*
* Reads and writes DXF (AutoCAD 2000 and R12)

The Fancy Pencil Manual is built in: press F1, or Help > User Manual.

This Snap Store edition opens and saves DXF drawings. For .dwg files, use the
Fancy Pencil Kit edition, which works with the free ODA File Converter.
