iFilter for DWG files

Dr. DWG has introduced yet another ground-breaking tool to the Autocad users. A pioneer in DWG based tools Dr. DWG Sift makes searching drawing files easier as never before. Sift can search text information within the DWG drawing like title, company, blocks, comments etc available in the drawing.

Sift is built using Microsoft’s .NET technology and Dr. DWG Cad toolkits - allowing users to extract text information’s from the drawing to an index file. The index files can be queried for a particular text occurrence - making search of drawing based on these texts a simple task.

An excellent tool for Designers, Draftsmen, Project Consultants, Civil Engineers, Architects and Engineering document publishers who would like to search and locate CAD drawings based on certain internal parameters. Sift compliments your existing drawing database manager to index the information’s on a continuous basis, significantly reducing the time to search the entire database.
