/ compare
Where Rasterex sits when you compare the options.
Most teams are not choosing between viewers. They are choosing how much drawing technology to build, test and maintain themselves. These pages set out the trade-off honestly, one alternative at a time.
/ the starting position
Read every comparison from the same starting point.
What we are
An embeddable canvas and SDK for technical drawings. It runs inside the customer's product, on the customer's infrastructure.
What we are not
Not a hosted consumer viewer, not a UI kit, and not a place people leave your system to open a file.
What you keep
Your interface, your data, your identity, your hosting and your workflow. We supply the drawing engine underneath.
What it covers
PDF, DWG, DGN, IFC, images, MS Office and 100+ formats through one integration.
