Editorial Policy

At CADfixes.com, my goal is simple: provide accurate, practical, and easy-to-follow AutoCAD troubleshooting solutions that help users solve problems quickly.

This Editorial Policy explains how content is created, reviewed, updated, and maintained on the site.


My Commitment to Accuracy

I strive to ensure that every article published on CADfixes.com is accurate, practical, and based on real AutoCAD experience.

Whenever possible, troubleshooting procedures, commands, system variables, workflows, and settings are verified before publication.

Because AutoCAD evolves over time, some features, commands, interfaces, and workflows may change between releases. While I make every effort to keep articles current, users should always verify compatibility with their specific AutoCAD version.


How Content Is Created

All content published on CADfixes.com is researched, written, reviewed, or edited under my supervision.

Articles are typically created using one or more of the following sources:

  • Personal experience working with AutoCAD since 1992
  • Real-world troubleshooting cases
  • Autodesk documentation
  • Autodesk Knowledge Network resources
  • Official Autodesk support materials
  • AutoCAD system variables and command references
  • Industry best practices
  • Feedback from AutoCAD users

Whenever possible, solutions are based on practical workflows that can be reproduced by readers.


My Testing Process

Before publishing troubleshooting guides, I attempt to verify solutions whenever practical.

Depending on the topic, this may include:

  • Testing commands and system variables
  • Reproducing common AutoCAD issues
  • Reviewing Autodesk documentation
  • Comparing behavior across AutoCAD versions
  • Validating workflows against known troubleshooting procedures

Some issues described on the site may depend on hardware configurations, operating systems, third-party software, network environments, custom AutoCAD profiles, or specific project files. In such cases, results may vary.


Editorial Independence

CADfixes.com is independently operated.

Editorial decisions are made based on the usefulness, accuracy, and relevance of the information provided to AutoCAD users.

Content is not influenced by advertisers, sponsors, software vendors, or third parties.

My primary responsibility is to provide helpful information to readers.


Content Updates

AutoCAD changes frequently, and troubleshooting methods may evolve over time.

To maintain accuracy, articles may be:

  • Updated when Autodesk introduces significant changes
  • Expanded with additional solutions
  • Corrected if errors are identified
  • Improved based on reader feedback

Where appropriate, articles may display publication dates and update dates.


Corrections Policy

Despite careful review, mistakes can occasionally occur.

If you discover an error, outdated information, broken instruction, or inaccurate technical detail, I encourage you to get in touch through the Contact page.

Verified corrections will be reviewed and implemented as quickly as possible.

Accuracy is an ongoing process, and reader feedback plays an important role in maintaining the quality of the site.


Use of Artificial Intelligence

Artificial intelligence tools may occasionally assist with research, organization, drafting support, grammar review, or content improvement.

However, all published content is reviewed, edited, and approved by a human editor before publication.

Technical recommendations, troubleshooting procedures, and editorial decisions remain subject to human review.


Product Recommendations

From time to time, CADfixes.com may publish articles discussing hardware, software, books, training resources, or other products relevant to AutoCAD users.

Recommendations are based on experience, research, technical suitability, and perceived value for CAD professionals.

The goal is always to provide useful information rather than promote products unnecessarily.


Reader First Philosophy

Every article published on CADfixes.com is guided by a simple principle:

Help the reader solve a problem as quickly and clearly as possible.

That means:

  • Clear explanations
  • Actionable solutions
  • Minimal jargon
  • Practical examples
  • Step-by-step instructions
  • Honest limitations when a solution may not apply to every situation

The success of CADfixes.com is measured by one thing: whether readers can solve their AutoCAD problems faster.
