In particular it is investigating the most appropriate methods through whch its information can be integrated into the operation of Computer Aided Design systems. The study wdl dso investigate how CAD can be integrated with Desktop Publishng to produce publications. The two techniques are different and the software and procedures are not readily compatible.
