Download XGDSVU for UNIX
To download XGDSVU for UNIX click on the appropriate binary. Then send us an email like the example below. We will return the installation password and temporary activation keys so that you can try out the working version of GDSVU for a limited time. If you are an existing customer please indicate this.

You will only need the latest password as your keystrings should work for updates. In case you are trying to view very large GDSII files (50MB and up to a few GB) we recommend you look at our high speed GDSII viewing software called QCKVU.

Dear Hagai,

I would like to evaluate your xgdsvu program on Sun 
running Solaris 2.8.  I've already downloaded it with the 
manuals.

My machine's hostname=bogusboy

my machine's hostid = 20056789ab   

I plan to use the program to view GDSII data without the
need to tie up an expensive cad license.

Thanks much,
