Autodesk plans to release a patch for two products that aim to remedy compatibility problems with Microsoft's new Internet Explorer 7.

Computer-aided design (CAD) specialist Autodesk late last week reversed a long-standing policy and released free viewing software for its proprietary DWG file format, which has long been the standard for CAD applications.
Adobe Systems' portable document format, long a de facto Internet standard, is under fire from competitors looking to muscle in on the electronic document market.
AutoCAD 2000i maintains backward compatibility with the files and scripts of AutoCAD 2000, provides a modest performance boost, and Internet functionality.
