PatentVec is Windows software that converts local STEP CAD files into patent drawing PDFs, with view selection, sheet options, and vector exports.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-21 issue.

For: Patent practitioners and design teams using STEP models
Worth noticing: The page says the software runs locally and exports SVG or DXF for further editing; the 14-day trial requires a card.

Field notes

The described workflow begins with model orientation: the page warns that front, top, and side views derive from the CAD model's principal axes. Export settings include sheet size, filing format, and numbering, while text overlays can be edited before output. The page lists a limited-feature trial and monthly Solo and Firm plans; Mac support is presented as forthcoming.
