Drawing usually refers to what an artist or designer does using pencil or ink or digital tools such as Adobe Photoshop or Illustrator and can be all freehand.
Drafting usually is an exacting mechanical drawing or Computer Assisted Drafting (CAD) that is meant to be an aid to architectural building as a scale drawing or a scaled blueprint for manufacturing and sometimes using CAD programs such as AutoCAD.

∙ 10y agoDrafting is a kind of drawing. It falls under the category of Technical Drawing as compared to "freehand" drawing. Anything that you didn't trace or use tools like rulers, french curves... is technically considered "freehand."
Drafting employs tools like T-squares and architect scales in order to produce detailed and technically accurate drawings of things like machine parts or Plumbing schematics. It demands absolute precision.
Freehand drawing, on the other hand, has a completely different set of priorities and objectives.
