    AutoCAD Tutorial

    AutoCAD is a  Computer-Aided Design  (CAD) drafting software, marketed by Autodesk. It is a


    commercial 2D and 3D drafting software. The AutoCAD software is used for several applications,
    including floor plan design, blueprints for buildings, bridges, chip design, etc.

    The AutoCAD was designed to help the users to achieve the realistic appearance of their projects. It is
    used by professionals in various industries to enhance their design, which increases the quality and
    productivity of their product. It has also increased the speed of manufacturing of the parts.

    What is AutoCAD?
    AutoCAD stands for  Autodesk Computer-Aided Design. It is a drafting and design software
    application developed and marketed by  Autodesk. The AutoCAD software is used in industries, by
    architects, designers, graphic designers, city planners, managers, and other professionals worldwide.

    The commercial CAD programs were used before the development of AutoCAD. The AutoCAD was
    run on microcomputers with an internal graphics controller. The commercial CAD programs ran on
    the minicomputers or mainframe computers, where each CAD operator worked at a separate graphics
    terminal.

    The AutoCAD software is available in various languages, namely, English, Italian, Spanish, German,
    French, Spanish, Albanian, Polish, Russian, Czech, Hungarian, Chinese Simplified and Traditional, and

    History of AutoCAD
    The Interact CAD was the first program began in 1977 and released in 1979. The AutoCAD was
    derived from the Interact CAD program, which is also referred to as MicroCAD in early Autodesk
    documents. It was written before Autodesk formation.

    The co-founder of Autodesk was Michael Riddle.

    The first version of AutoCAD by Autodesk was demonstrated in 1982 and released in December, in
    the same year. It also supported CP/M-80 computers. By the year 1986, in March, the AutoCAD
    became the most effective CAD program worldwide.

    The 2020 version was marked as the 34th  version released by the AutoCAD for Windows. The 2019
    version was marked as the 9th  consecutive version for the MAC. The common extension for the file
    format in AutoCAD is .dwg.

    The DXF file format has become the de-facto standard for 2D drawing exchange and CAD data
    interoperability.
