This maybe a simple question, but I'm having a hard time learning this software.

I have a DXF file I created with another program, it's dimensionally correct, I've had parts waterjet cut from the file. Is there a way to create a 2D mechanical drawing of that file that includes all the dimensions written on the page...

Thanks for the help..

The .dxf is probably a 2-D. You have to import it to Viacad.

Thanks, I got that far, not an issue. I did find a video on annotation, that's basically what I needed.
