The planning of which views are to be shown to fully describe the object.
The planning required for the placement of notes and dimensions.
The scale at which various features must be made.
Differences
View orientation can be adjusted at the completion of the drawing.
Corrections such as line thickness and line type can be easily corrected at the completion of the drawing.
Easily change the scale of views.
