Click a line, circle or arc near where it crosses another shape — that piece is trimmed away. Keep going after a cut: a circle split by a line becomes two arcs you can trim further, and the line can be removed piece by piece. Works on lines, circles and arcs (not curves, rectangles or text).
Snapping
The full CAD workbench, in your browser: everything the free 2D CAD Drawpad does, plus snap to node, grid and ortho, multi-select and transform (mirror, rotate, place, resize), dimensions and measuring, fillets, join, engraving and cut-out vector text, and photo-to-vector tracing. Draw or import a DXF, SVG, EPS, AI or DWG, edit it precisely, and export to any CAD or image format. Using the studio is free; only the download is metered.

How to use this tool
Draw with the top tools — line, curve, circle, rectangle, text, trim — by clicking on the canvas or typing exact coordinates in the panel.
Snap: new points grab onto existing endpoints, the grid, or straight and 45° angles. Toggle each snap on the bar under the toolbar.
Select a shape and use Transform to mirror, place, rotate (by degrees or by dragging) or resize it; Join merges shapes that meet end-to-end into one vector.
Add dimensions and measure distances, round corners with Fillet, add engraving or cut-out vector text, or trace a photo or scan into editable geometry.
Export to DXF, SVG, EPS, PDF, DWG or an image. Using the studio is free — only the download is metered (a CAD pass or subscription covers it, otherwise credits).
Who it's for — and how it's priced
The CAD Studio is built for people who make or tweak drawings more than once in a blue moon — a few times a year up to a few times a month — and don't want to rent expensive desktop CAD for it. It's the same own-code editor as the free 2D CAD Drawpad, with the working tools that make regular use comfortable: snapping so lines actually meet, transform and resize by exact numbers, dimensions and a measure tool, corner fillets, join, real vector text (single-line engraving or cut-out outlines) and tracing a photo or scan into editable geometry. Everything runs in your browser — drawing, editing and most exports never leave your machine; the only server step is reading or writing DWG, a closed format. Using the studio is completely free. Only when you download your finished drawing is it metered: a CAD day pass or subscription makes downloads unlimited, otherwise each export costs a small number of credits, and new accounts start with a free batch.
How is this different from the free 2D CAD Drawpad?
The Drawpad is the basic, always-free version — draw a few shapes and download. The Studio adds the tools that make it comfortable for regular work: snapping, multi-select and transform, dimensions, measuring, fillets, join, vector text and image tracing. Both run entirely in your browser.
Do I have to pay?
Using the studio is free — draw, import, edit and preview as much as you like. Only downloading the finished file is metered: a CAD day pass, or a CAD or all-access subscription, makes downloads unlimited; otherwise each export costs a small number of credits, and new accounts start with a batch of free credits.
Which formats can I import and export?
Import DXF, SVG, EPS, AI or DWG. Export to DXF, SVG, EPS, PDF, DWG (when available) or a PNG/JPEG/WebP/BMP/TIFF image. Everything happens in your browser except the DWG step (LibreDWG on our server, in memory, never stored).
Is my drawing uploaded to your server?
No — drawing, editing and almost all exports run entirely in your browser. The only exceptions are DWG (reading an imported DWG or writing one on export) and tracing an image, which use a short server step; those files are processed in memory and deleted straight after.
Click a line, circle or arc near where it crosses another shape — that piece is trimmed away. Keep going after a cut: a circle split by a line becomes two arcs you can trim further, and the line can be removed piece by piece. Works on lines, circles and arcs (not curves, rectangles or text).
Click two points to measure the distance between them. Dimensions go on the info layer: they show in PDF and image exports, but are left out of DXF/DWG/SVG/EPS cut files so a machine never cuts them.
Click two points to read the distance, angle and offsets between them. It snaps to existing corners. This is only a readout — nothing is added to the drawing.
Type a radius, then click a corner to round it — or select a shape and use 'Round all corners'. Rounded corners become separate lines and arcs, so they cut smoothly. Works on outer and inner corners.

Centre
Select one shape to centre it in the sheet — or select two, and the last-clicked one is centred inside the first. The sheet itself is only a guide; it is never exported.
Join into one vector
Select two or more lines, arcs or polylines that meet end-to-end, then join them into a single polyline. If they close a loop, you get a closed vector.
Trace an image → geometry
Adjust the threshold until the shapes you want are solid black, then vectorize. It traces the outlines of the black areas and drops them into the drawing as editable lines.
Our new studios
All our tools gathered under one roof, plus a few extras. Our studios let you take a whole project from start to finish in one place, instead of hopping between separate tools. Give them a try!

Confidential files deserve a private tool
Sensitive UBL invoices, technical CAD drawings, or important PDF/A archives don't belong on an unknown server. Why take that risk?
