Publisher's Synopsis
A core text for beginning-level courses in AutoCAD LT and a supplement for courses in Engineering Graphics or Architectural Graphics that use AutoCAD LT.
This textbook is written specifically on AutoCAD LT for Windows 95 - the inexpensive software that serves as an alternative for learning to use the complete AutoCAD program - and its full range of 2D commands and the basic 3D drawing, viewing, and model/paper space presentation features. Hands-on in approach, the text describes the AutoCAD LT program in detail and uses a combination "Prompt-Response" and "On Your Own" format that allows students to learn AutoCAD at their own pace by actually drawing with it. For each feature, the text clearly explains what is presented on the screen and what students must do to make a particular drawing. It not only provides students with a thorough knowledge of the basic AutoCAD program, but prepares them to be immediately productive in any situation where 2D and basic 3D AutoCAD skills are required.
