Feature Comparison Annotate PDFs with markups such as customized text, shapes, stamps and watermarks Measure PDFs with built-in measurement tools Flatten PDF. Similar to Inventor (unfold, unwrap) or to Fusion 360, also AutoCAD can unfold some types of unfoldable 3D objects/surfaces to 2D representation, e.g.
