Here the press release:
Award-winning independent Mac developer, Lemke Software GmbH today is pleased to announce the release and immediate availability of CADintosh 8.5, an important update to its popular high performance 2D CAD program for the Mac. The app delivers a large variety of CAD tools to Technical Draftsmen, Designers, and other users that create professional technical, mechanical, and architectural drawings.
CADintosh offers a comfortable and simple user interface, providing a large number of usability and workflow advantage over other apps of its kind. The number of CAD elements that can be used in the app is limited only by the available memory in the user's Mac. The app offers 8 pens with fully definable line widths and colors, 6 different line types, and supports 1,024 layers. Pre-settings are saved with each drawing.
"CADintosh was already the most powerful and easy to use 2D CAD program available on the Mac," says Thorsten Lemke, president of Lemke Software. "Version 8.5 builds upon that, as the cumulative result of over twenty years of development by our team of industry experts."
CADintosh creates drawings composed of multiple layers that can easily be organized into groups. The app supports up to 1,024 layers and up to 32,000 groups. The app offers a wide variety of design tools that can be used to create professional CAD drawings.

The app's easy-to-use tools allow anyone to create lines, circles, text, dimensions, X-lines, hatching, and set scale within their drawing. Users can access 8 different pens of variable widths, colors, and styles from the app's convenient drop-down menus. Available line types include full line, dotted line, chain line, dotted line with two dots, zigzag line, and short dotted line.

Projects can be created using either imperial or metric units.
We make CADintosh free to try, so that users can run it through its paces before paying," continues Thorsten. "We know once users see what the app offers, they'll appreciate its excellent return on investment."
