How do You pronounce it?
- It's "CAT-E-AH". Someone who knows how to use those funky pronunciation symbols can add that to the main article. StuRat 14:51, 11 September 2005 (UTC)
- I (and everyone else I've heard) pronounces it kah-TEE-uh
The name is French, and is pronounced as kah tee ah. David.Monniaux 06:47, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

Supported platforms?
[edit] PLM?
Catia all by itself is not a PLM software. For that you have software like VPM, SmarTeam, Delmia, etc. These type of programs are used to manage the files created by a software like Catia or SolidWorks. PLM is about managing the data of a project. Catia doesn't do that. I suggest removing the reference to PLM for the sake of this article. 65.220.113.252 19:12, 19 January 2007 (UTC)
I agree by itself Catia is not PLM but PLM is not just managing data (PDM) it is all aspects of the product development lifecycle, which includes creating geometry to describe the shape of products. CAD is one of many software tools in the field of PLM. An earlier version did put it differently Freeformer 21:05, 19 January 2007 (UTC)
Version 5, R16 and R17 installers (And probably earlier) will install Enovia if you have the proper product license. Enovia is a database based management system for storing Catia models, Drawings, and Catalog sets. The various extended workbenches in Catia, such as Knowledgeware Advisor and Knowledgeware Expert are geared almost exclusively toward continued product lifecycle operations; such as parameterization of features for dynamic reconformation of models, global standards checking against rulebases, and inclusion of specification documents. Additionally, Catia has a Catalog editor, for the creation of collaborative part-and or-feature development and is geared toward multi-department collaboration, making it a vital component to PLM operations. Catalogs are used in everything from product creation, to testing, to the various machining and fabrication workbenches. PLM is a very centralized theme in V5, and can be seen literally EVERYWHERE if you take the time to look.68.102.128.172 09:46, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Sources for Notable Industries using CATIA
On "Notable Industries using CATIA" I added two references for Frank Gehry. This section now has enough references to take down the notice... Agree? Keecheril 17:18, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
