About Us The firm became Duane Hartman & Associates, Inc. (DHA) in 1993 when Duane Hartman, PLS, acquired the assets and records of Permit/Engineering, Inc.

Windows 8 64-bit iso. (P/E), consulting engineers, in Bellevue, Washington. Duane, one of the founding partners of P/E, reorganized the firm and moved the assets to new offices in the Woodinville West Business Park by the Sammamish River in Woodinville, Washington. DHA opened its new doors to clientele seeking quality surveying and mapping services. The former engineering services were discontinued to give full attention to the conduct of surveying.

DHA’s staff includes two professional land surveyors, CAD technicians, field technicians and an office/financial manager. The office facilities include computers loaded with software that includes Softdesk Civil/Survey and all versions of AutoCAD Civil 3d 2013, Trimble GPS and a variety of special data reduction adjustment and coordinate conversion software. Final products are plotted on a HP color plotter (E size) and delivered electronically via any type of media of the client’s choice. DHA’s associates have enjoyed many years of collaboration on projects in the Northwest. Duane Hartman and Aero-Metric, Inc.

• First, • • Using Windows Explorer, copy your entire Softdesk CD to your hard drive, to a folder path c: Autodesk softdesk • Start the Longbow Converter tool, select the 2nd tab, pick the c: Autodesk softdesk folder, and click Run. Read and understand all the prompts before pressing OK. Now, I know it’s unheard of these days, but at this point expect to wait at least 45 minutes for your Softdesk setup.exe program to appear.

Once the setup starts, install as normal (simply accept all defaults). • Next we need to initialize Softdesk on startup, so depending on what works best for you – either • Start your AutoCAD R14 by running c: acadR14 acad.exe. Once AutoCAD starts up fully, simply type preferences at the command line, select the Profiles tab, double click the Softdesk profile and make it the Current Profile. Finally, OK out of the preferences dialog. • Another way to intialize Softdesk on startup is to create a Desktop shortcut to c: acadR14 acad.exe – make sure the shortcut • Target: is set to C: acadR14 acad.exe /c c: sdsk programs /p “softdesk 8” • Working Directory: is set to C: acadR14 • Now you can happily run your Softdesk tools inside of AutoCAD R14 on Windows 10, Windows 7, Windows 8 or Windows 8.1 32bit or 64bit Troubleshooting If your setup is not starting after 45 minutes, try rebooting, then restart the steps above.
