Best free DXF, etc. viewer

[mklotz]

I recently received a drawing in DXF format. Since I don't have any CAD
programs, I need to download a drawing viewer. In the interest of conserving
disk space, I'd like one that can handle DXF as well as other common CAD
drawing formats.

Google lists an intimidating wealth of candidates.
I'd appreciate any recommendations from personal experience, with particular
attention to:

general utility (e.g., range of formats accepted)
ease of installation (W98)
ease of use
download size

Thanks in advance, Marv

Volo View Express. From Autodesk. Do a search on it and it will point you to Autodesk. Its free.

Thanks, Marty, I'll give that a try.

Or the free viever from http://www.fastcad.com
Nice little program will do DWG, DXF and a couple of other file formats.
The viewer is a free download, no restrictions.
Download size is just under 3 meg as opposed to 24meg for Volo view.
