Totally updated for AutoCAD 2008 and 2008 LT including the new and enhanced Commands, Dimensioning, Hatching, Mtext, Dynamic Blocks, Dynamic Input and more. Ideal for classroom instruction or as a self-study tutorial, it provides only what you need without all of the jargon. It also includes 30 lessons with step by step instructions followed by exercises designed for practicing the commands learned within the lesson. Each lesson starts very simple and progresses to more complex. The approach taken is to familiarize users with the drawing commands first, and then teach users to create their own setup drawings. Each lesson is explained clearly and in a non-intimidating manner.
