AUTOCAD LT 2007 UPGRADE PDF
Despite pushing DWF as the solution for engineering drawings, Autodesk has finally implemented a PDF plot capability. Much has been said in the war of marketing between Adobe and Autodesk. Ease of use appears to have been one of the key themes behind Autodesk’s 3D implementation. However, the success of products like SketchUp has demonstrated that an easy to use 3D tool does have its place in the predominantly 2D architectural practices. The MCAD industry is well on the way to a 3D only market but AEC (Architecture Engineering Construction) is progressing slowly. With the design industry slowly but steadily moving to 3D solutions, it’s right that AutoCAD is brought up to date, to offer millions of users the chance to at least play and experiment with 3D modelling. 3D mode, on the other hand, looks more like 3D Studio Viz or SketchUp. AutoCAD, in ‘Classic’ mode, by and large looks like the last release, with the odd tweak here and there. Both feature different interfaces and rightly so. AutoCAD now operates in ‘Classic’ mode or a new 3D mode. It’s as if Autodesk has added a completely new 3D CAD package into AutoCAD. But fear not, the development team has done a great job this time!
AUTOCAD LT 2007 UPGRADE UPDATE
The last time Autodesk did a major 3D update was in Release 13, adding ACIS and breaking the product in the process. While not necessarily the main use of AutoCAD, being the 2D stalwart that it is, Autodesk has made a bold attempt to update AutoCAD in an area that, to be honest, was pretty bad. To date, the AutoCAD development team has done an impressive job of adding really useful and innovative functionality to what had become a fairly stagnant, yet universally popular product.ĪutoCAD 2007, released in March, is the latest and greatest release and, here, the development team has been exceptionally ambitious, fitting in major changes. With each release, Autodesk has been working around themes and beefing up the functionality in specific areas, such as presentation, 2D and collaboration. A new version of AutoCAD every year is now the norm.
