2D CAD services
Three services, one result: clean, to-scale CAD files that follow your CAD standard.
01
Convert paper drawings, PDFs and scanned plans into precise, editable 2D CAD files, preserving the required geometry, dimensions, text, symbols and layer structure.
02
Point clouds to accurate 2D drawings
Transform registered point-cloud data and laser scans into 2D CAD drawings representing existing building conditions, including floor plans, sections and elevations.
03
Make existing CAD files consistent
Restructure existing CAD drawings to align with your updated CAD guidelines, layer standards, line styles, fonts, dimensions and drawing conventions.
Scope of service
Prices per A0 drawing, plus VAT. Pick the variant that matches the CAD standard you need.

A0 drawing€75plus VAT
A0 drawing, from€99plus VAT
For small to medium quantities, three delivery times are available depending on the urgency of your enquiry.
Exact by design
Drawings that exist only as prints or scans today are needed as DWG files: drawn to scale, with correct symbols and text placed on the appropriate layer, and the right dimensions, line types and line widths. Fast and inexpensive.
JDS CAD digitising combines the most advanced digital methods with on-screen post-processing by CAD experts and quality assurance by engineers who understand the content of your drawings. A high rate of automatic vectorisation keeps the price low; post-processing and checks by experienced engineers keep the quality high. In the shortest time, in any volume.

DWG-Basic (€49 per A0) covers architecture and engineering drawings with the JDS Basic layer set, checked by our draftsmen. DWG-Premium (€75) adds more fields and Allplan output, up to 56 layers or your own layers, checked by JDS engineers. DWG-Premium Plus (from €99) follows your complete CAD specification and includes extra services such as plausibility checks across several plans. All prices are plus VAT.
Yes. You can specify layering, layer colours, drawing scale, text size, and line widths and types. With Premium Plus we also follow your fonts, dimension styles, layout borders, title blocks and plot style tables.
Yes. If scans are already available, for example as PDF, TIFF or JPEG, we digitise them into CAD directly without scanning them again.
For small to medium quantities you can choose from three delivery times: Standard in 5 days, Urgent in 3 days, or Express in only 24 hours. For larger projects we agree the schedule with you.
A high rate of automatic vectorisation is followed by on-screen post-processing by CAD experts and quality control by our draftsmen or engineers. The results are 99% equivalent to drawings redrawn from scratch by a qualified CAD expert.
Yes. We return your original drawings free of charge after the project is completed.
