| 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. | The record does not create product specifications, prove fit or manufacturability, select materials or construction settings, establish legal compliance, reproduce licensed standards, or replace qualified technical, production, quality, testing, sourcing, logistics, safety, compliance, and legal review. |

| 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. | The guide cites published ISO documented-information, garment-measurement, stitch, and seam sources plus current U.S. FTC textile and care-labeling guidance; it discloses ISO 10013:2021's current review stage, and its working record makes organization-specific requirements, suppliers, evidence, issues, and approvals explicit. |
