Wow! I put audiocad in google, and it did not show any result related to cad softwares.

It is something quite interesting to investigate.

Once upon a time I did a stint in Computerized design using a product called AutoCAD. After my sight was gone, I had the occasion to speak with the parent company Autodesk and they informed me that they were working on AudioCad… I was rather busy at the time feeding myself to get involved and really don’t know where the product ended up. Give Autodesk a try, one never knows.

I have never found any cad software that is accessible. CAD software is all visual, at least from what I have seen.

Best,

Hello,

Does anyone know if EAGLE:
http://www.cadsoftusa.com/download-eagle/

is accessible?

I am looking for PCB CAD softwares that are accessible.

Thanks,

    attached. Hope
    this helps.
