Does anyone know where i can obtain inexpensive or better yet free lighting plot software. I need just basic stuff, as I only rehang about 2 or three times a year.

I use Field Template, Desk, Scale Rule, Triangle, Pencil, and Eraser. Works well enough for me.
In my college years I used Autocad. Much easier to move a light than with the other stack, but it also takes having access to Acad. It also takes having a plotter to export useful data off of the system. |

The IT guys here just installed AutoCad on my computer so I can do plots.

Look into LD assistant if you actually want to use AutoCAD for lighting.

Any lighting supply store will have them, I order mine from Babizon.
Field Templates™: THE Source for Theatrical Lighting Symbols! - Also has a list of vendors by location, although I'm guessing online stores would sell them cheap as well. |

I dont know whetere this may be a wee bit late but i recently discovered a technique i use a program called Turbo CAD andf i downloaded the symbols free at modelboxplans.com
Its not as good as programs such as vectorworks or wysiwyg or softplot, but for a freebie, it does its job. Hope this helps ciao |
