This edition provides rock-solid information on the latest changes and enhancements of the past two AutoCAD releases and guides readers through the newest enhancements and shows them how to apply them to real projects. This book gets readers up to speed and clearly outlines what is new from the previous versions. From Attributes to Xrefs, Inside AutoCAD 2002 details the features that put them on the fast track to AutoCAD success. The popularity (adoption rate) of AutoCAD releases tends to spike every other rev: AutoCAD 10, 12 and 14 were huge releases, while AutoCAD 11, 13, and 2000 were incremental. Autodesk will discontinue sales and update support for AutoCAD 14 this summer. The CD-ROM has all the files to complete the tutorials. White papers and third party programs have been carefully selected to help you strengthen your professional skills.
