Is there an add on or a filter of some type that I can use to get the effect of Napkin Sketch on my DataCAD drawings? Here is a link for what I'm talking about: https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/ ... 5-htm.html

You can change the linetype to 'Ruffcut' (I think this comes with Dcad as part of the standard package) or you can order the 'Wiggle' linetypes from Cheap Tricks (includes a continuous linetype, a dashed linetype and a centerline linetype).

Export to Sketchup (there is a free version). Choose from one of the 100's of styles that fit your taste. You'll get a much better "hand drawn" looking image with this method.
