AutoCAD LT is an incredibly powerful and versatile program that allows users to create and visualize models in 2D and view 3D models. The program is extremely user-friendly and intuitive, making it easy to generate drawings of maps, buildings, models, and other products and landscapes. Additionally, AutoCAD LT offers a number of features to help users publish, mark up, export, auto-publish, and print their DWF files. The program is also fully integrated with other Autodesk programs and has web and mobile applications, making it an incredibly useful tool for a variety of projects. Overall, AutoCAD LT is a great choice for anyone looking for a comprehensive CAD software solution.
AutoCAD LT 2009 is the latest version of this software we can buy and download online from the developer's website. We can evaluate for free the trial version for a 30-day period. AutoCAD LT has been developed for giving us the necessary tools to imagine, create and visualize models in 2D. It cannot create 3D model like his big brother AutoCAD 2009, although we can use it to view the 3D models created with the latest one. It also features much less capabilities and tools but on the other hand it is much cheaper so we can compare them and buy the one which suits best our needs. For a complete list of differences we can visit the Autodesk website. With this program we can design maps, buildings, models, toys, industrial, civil and engineering products, landscapes, and much more. With the Design Review we are allowed to plot, publish, mark up, export, publish to web, and auto publish and print the resulting DWF files. AutoCAD LT has a 32-bit version, which runs under Windows XP and Vista, and a 64-bit version which only works under Windows Vista. Both are available in many different languages. It features a good help guide and there are also training courses available worldwide.
v12.0 [Aug 31, 2011]
1. Associative Arrays - Save valuable rework time by establishing and maintaining a set of relationships between arrayed objects.
Benefit: Easier exploration of design concepts and faster modification of arrayed objects.
2. More multifunctional grips - Direct manipulation of objects with multifunctional grips has been extended to lines, arcs, elliptical arcs, dimensions, and multileaders, in addition to polylines and hatch objects.
Benefit: Faster, more intuitive everyday editing.
3. Web-based collaboration with AutoCAD® WS -The Online tab in AutoCAD LT 2012 provides built-in access to AutoCAD WS, the free* web and mobile application.
Benefit: Streamlined collaboration with colleagues and clients.
4. Additional functionality from AutoCAD® software - AutoCAD LT 2012 includes three new features that were previously available only in AutoCAD. The Sheet Set Manager organizes your drawing sets and keeps them up-to-date. Delete Duplicates cleans up drawings by removing duplicate and unneeded geometry. And the Nested Copy tool enables you to copy items out of blocks or external references directly into your current drawings.
Benefit: Better drawing management, cleaner documents, and more flexibility when working with blocks and references.
5. Support for the latest hardware, operating systems, and file formats - AutoCAD LT 2012 is supported on the latest Windows®-based workstations, including those with 64-bit processors and the Windows 7 operating system. Also, the DWGTM file format used by AutoCAD LT 2012 is the same as that used by AutoCAD LT 2011, AutoCAD LT 2010, and the rest of the AutoCAD family, maximizing compatibility and interoperability when sharing files with colleagues and clients.
Benefit: Confidence in the compatibility and stability of your hardware and software.
