| Know before using | TUKAcad is Windows software; the official Mac route requires a separate virtual Windows environment. Pattern-piece, graded-size, marker, import and export, digitizing, and production-output capabilities vary materially by paid tier. A CAD file or marker report does not prove fit or factory readiness, so verify formats, grade rules, seam and production data, hardware, training, and downstream compatibility before subscribing. | This is one educational product built from a specific master's study, population, body-type framing, and regional measurement context. It is not a current Brazilian or international sizing standard, universal plus-size block, ready-to-sew pattern, regulated curriculum, fit guarantee, or evidence that the reported measurements represent another population or product. Review the study method, sample, language, license, intended learners, and product-specific fit evidence before reuse. |

| What the source establishes | Tukatech's current TUKAcad page publishes monthly Learning and Professional editions for digital patternmaking and grading, with a higher tier adding marker making, data import and export, digitizing, cut-data optimization, and yield reports. It discloses plan limits on pattern pieces, graded sizes, and marker dimensions, plus built-in help, block templates, a trial, Windows requirements, and the Windows-on-Mac route. | CAPES's eduCAPES repository identifies this November 2023 digital book as an Instituto Federal de Goiás educational product by Yane Ondina Almeida and Wanderley Azevedo Brito. The Portuguese abstract describes a theoretical and practical guide for inclusive plus-size garment-patternmaking education using regional anthropometric measurements from a ProfEPT master's study.
