Drawings worth presenting
Set your line weights, hatches, and annotations once, and every drawing follows them.
Your plans come out with the hierarchy and clarity your studio is known for, not the software's defaults.
Architectural practice
without the compromise.
Precise drafting
Configurable elements
Walls build up layer by layer, from structure to finish.
Windows and doors go further, with sashes, transoms, and opening mechanisms, all set without the long list of inputs BIM usually demands.
Export to any format
Send your drawings out as DWG, DXF, or PDF, ready to open in whatever tools your collaborators use.
Everything stays editable, so the next person picks up exactly where you left off.
Questions precise drafting ask before getting started.
What scales and units does the drafting environment support?
Metric and imperial, freely switchable per project. Drawing scales 1:1 through 1:200 with snap-to-grid increments down to 1 mm or 1/32". Dimensions update automatically when geometry changes, which kills the "I forgot to update the tag" class of bug.
Can I keep my drafting standards, layer names, line weights, hatching?
Yes. Define a studio template once with your layer taxonomy, line-weight scale, and hatching set. Every new project starts from that template. Update the template later and propagate the change into ongoing projects on request.
How accurate are dimensions and areas at print time?
Dimensions are computed from the geometry itself, not from a hand-typed annotation. Print a plan at 1:50 and a tape measure against the printout reads true to the source. Areas calculated by Synaps match what an external GFA audit produces, accurate to two decimals.
Does it export DWG cleanly for collaborators who still use AutoCAD?
Yes. DWG export preserves layers, line weights, blocks, and dimensions in a way that opens cleanly in AutoCAD 2018 and later. We round-trip-test against AutoCAD weekly so the exchange does not degrade your drawing on a hand-off.
