Frequently asked questions
What hardware do I need to run Temper?
Most modern hardware handles Temper comfortably. There's no hard minimum - if your machine can run a current browser and a typical CAD viewer, it can run Temper. A dedicated graphics card is not required; GPU performance has little bearing on scene performance.
Complex parts will use more memory during import and take longer to process projection views - this is normal.
How long does the free trial last?
30 days, full-featured, no credit card required. At the end of the trial you can buy a license to keep using Temper, or you can uninstall without any lingering subscription.
Does Temper work offline?
Yes. Temper is a desktop app; your files stay on your machine. Once activated, a paid licence works offline indefinitely - Temper checks in with the licence server occasionally when you're online, but doesn't need a connection to run.
What happens after my 12 months of updates run out?
Your licence is perpetual: whatever version of Temper you have installed keeps working forever. You just won't receive updates released after your maintenance window ends. Renew any time to get another 12 months of updates.
I'm having trouble installing
macOS. Open the .dmg and drag Temper into Applications. If macOS ever refuses to open the app with a message about Apple not being able to check it, right-click Temper in Applications, choose Open, then confirm. Only an Apple Silicon build ships today - let us know if you need Intel.
Windows. Run the .exe installer. SmartScreen may show a blue warning the first time - click More info then Run anyway. Windows code-signing is in progress and this will go away.
Linux - AppImage.
chmod +x Temper-0.0.13.AppImage
./Temper-0.0.13.AppImageLinux - Debian / Ubuntu.
sudo dpkg -i temper_0.0.13_amd64.debStill stuck? Email support@tempercad.com with your OS version and what you're seeing.
Can I install Temper on more than one computer?
Yes. A single licence activates on multiple machines (e.g. desktop and laptop). If you change hardware, you can deactivate an old machine from within the app to free up the slot.
What files can I import and export?
Import: STEP files (.step / .stp) from any CAD package - Plasticity, Rhino, Fusion 360, Onshape, FreeCAD, SolidWorks, CATIA, and others.
Export: SVG, PDF (single- or multi-page), and DXF for downstream CAM/CAD workflows.
