Re: Autodesk DWFwriter Beta now available

I keep wondering why companies develop proprietary formats while (better)
standards exist( http://www.dynabits.com/sw/svg.htm,
http://hyperdisc.unitec.ac.nz/ia02s1/linc01/svg.htm )
How can they expect selling software when better, cheaper tools already are
on the market ?
(www.leadtools.com which btw already can generate DWF)
For drawings, SVG has so many advantages I cannot understand the benefit of
DWF.
