Hi Miquel Pujol Garcia,
   in the QAD manual you can read...
Hope it helps.

Layer
QAD supports all types of vector layers of QGIS with a distinction
regarding the point layer. In fact, QAD manage layers of QGIS
distinguishing between symbols layers and text layers. The first
displays symbols while the second displays texts.
The text layer is a layer that displays labels only. It is a QGIS point
layer with the following characteristics:
1.	the symbol must have a minimum of 90% transparency
2.	must have a label
Layers that are not textual will be considered as symbol layers.

Text layer model:
The text layer must have the following fields:
•	a character field to store text
Optional fields:
•	a real number field to store the text height (map unit)
•	a real number field to store text rotation (degree counterclockwise
where zero = horizontal to the right)
The textual layer must be defined with labels set as follows:
•	the size can be read from a real number field that stores the text
height (in map units, tab <Labels>-<Text>, if set than the TEXT command
will ask for it)
•	the rotation can be read from a real number field that stores text
rotation (degree counterclockwise where zero = horizontal to the right),
<Preserve data rotation values> option enabled (tab
<Labels>-<Placement>, if set than the TEXT command will ask for it)

Symbol layer model:
The symbol layers may have the following optional fields:
•	a real number field to store the symbol rotation (degree
counterclockwise where zero = horizontal to the right)
•	a real number field to store the symbol scale
The symbol layer can be defined with a style set as follows:
•	If you decide to handle the rotation or scale of symbols then the
<Style>-<Single Symbol> option and <Style>-<map units> option must be
enabled
•	The rotation could be read by a real number field that stores the
symbol rotation through the formula "360-<field that stores the
rotation>" (degree counterclockwise where zero = horizontal to the
right, <Style>-<Advanced> option "rotation field name"-<Espressione>, if
set than the INSERT command will ask for it)
•	The scale can be read by a real number field that stores the scale of
the symbol (<Style>-<Advanced>-<Size scale field>-“ field that stores
the scale” and <Style>-< Advanced >-<Size scale field >-<Scale
diameter>, if set than the INSERT command will ask for it)
