FAMISCAD

FAMISCAD is a set of Customizations for AutoCAD.  It determines square footage from a drawing using polylines.  It is used by the Design and Construction team, mostly by the Design Services group.

I do not fully understand how these customizations work.  If explanations or changes are ever needed, we will have to find an AutoCAD expert who deals with these types of changes to work on them.

FAMISCAD Customizations must be installed for each user profile on the computer.
