Cons

“Bue printin used an amonia based machine to copy on to photopaper to make copies , This is where blueprints came from , that machine woudl turn the black in white into this blue paper and white lines , Yuk smelled so bad and was so slow to copy , was slower the then old mimgraphs schools used to sue , photocopying was so expensive at the sizes produced. ”

“Users frequently cite several drawbacks to AutoCAD, but the most common complaints center on its high cost and subscription model, a steep learning curve, and comparatively limited 3D modeling capabilities.”
