Can a drafting stool be used at a standard-height desk?

Yes, but with a critical caveat: the drafting stool must be adjusted down to the same seat height range as a standard task chair — approximately 17"–21". Most drafting stools can be lowered into this range. However, if the work surface is standard height (29"–30") and the user sits at the correct ergonomic height, the foot ring will hover near the floor or contact it, which is acceptable.
