What files can I send for drafting?

Start with the drawings, specifications and requirements you have. Existing PDF drawings are specifically supported for PDF to CAD conversion; ask PlanVizion to review any other source format before assuming it can be used.

Can PDF drawings be converted to CAD?

Yes. PlanVizion offers conversion and redrafting of existing PDF drawings into editable CAD formats. The usable detail depends on the source drawing and the agreed scope.

What information is needed for a quote?

Describe your project type, the drawings you need and the source information available. The enquiry form asks for your name, email, optional phone number, project type and project details.

What drawing formats may be provided?

File formats are agreed for each project. Include the format you need when you send your requirements so it can be discussed before delivery.

How are revisions handled?

Drawings are reviewed and agreed revisions are incorporated before final delivery. Include your review and revision needs in the project brief so the scope can be discussed.

What is included in architectural drafting?

Architectural drafting can cover floor plans, elevations, sections and detailed working drawings, according to the agreed brief. See architectural drafting for the scope to discuss.

What is included in structural drafting?

PlanVizion offers structural layout drawings and drafting support for building projects. The supplied specifications and required drawings define the drafting scope; see structural drafting.

How do floor plans differ from a full architectural drawing set?

Floor plan drafting focuses on plan drawings. A broader architectural scope may also include elevations, sections and working drawings; specify the sheets you need when requesting a quote. Compare floor plans with architectural drafting.

Can hand sketches or scanned drawings be used as reference?

Possibly, but their suitability is not confirmed by the current service information. Describe the material you have through the contact page so PlanVizion can discuss whether it supports the requested drawing.

How should I submit project requirements?

Use the homepage enquiry form, or reach PlanVizion through the details on the contact page. Include the project type, drawings needed and available source information.
