Reduce Design Revision Time with Parametric Drawing
Dramatically slash your design revision time with parametric drawing. By
defining persistent relationships between objects, parallel lines remain
parallel and concentric circles remain centered, all automatically.

Save Time with Annotation Scaling
Spend less time creating and managing multiple items across multiple layers.
With annotation scaling tools, you can create a single annotative-type object
that automatically resizes to reflect the current viewport or model-space scale.

Standardize Drawings with Dynamic Blocks
Save time and standardize drawings with ease. With Dynamic Blocks, you no
longer have to redraw repetitive standard components, and you can reduce your
cumbersome block libraries in the process. Dynamic Blocks make individual
block geometry editable and eliminate the need to define a new block for
every variation of shape and size.

Speed Layer Management
Create and edit layer properties faster, and reduce errors at the same time.
With the Layer Dialog box, changes are instantly reflected in the drawing as
they are made in the dialog.

Organize Sheet Sets
Organization isn’t a luxury. The AutoCAD Sheet Set Manager organizes
your drawing sheets, reduces steps to publish, automatically creates layout
views, links sheet set information into title blocks and plot stamps, and
performs tasks across a sheet set so everything is in one convenient place.

Easily Manipulate Text
Now you can easily manipulate text by viewing, sizing, and positioning
text as you type. Adjust the text’s appearance as needed using familiar
tools common in text-editing applications, including paragraph and column
tools to achieve professional-quality formatting.

Quickly and Easily Extract Data
Quickly and easily extract property data from objects in drawings (including
blocks and attributes) and drawing information with the Data Extraction
wizard. The extracted data can then be automatically output to a table or an
external file.

Create and Edit Multiple Leaders
With multileader tools, creating and editing
leaders is easy. Define multileader styles to ensure
consistency across leaders, add multiple leader lines to a single leader
object, and even include bubbles or blocks as leader content.
Increase your productivity by automating the tedious task of creating and
maintaining tables. You can define table styles to easily apply consistent
table formatting including fonts, colors, borders, and much more.
Link Excel Data to AutoCAD Designs
Easily link Excel data to your AutoCAD designs for consistency and
efficiency. Data links can be updated in both directions, eliminating the need
to update tables or external spreadsheets independently. All linked information
can easily be kept current and in sync automatically.
Save Time with Dynamic Prompts and Menus
Focus on the design, not the tools. Dynamic Input displays a command line
type of prompt right at the cursor so you can launch commands, view dimensions,
and enter values without looking at the command line. With the Quick Properties
menu you can dramatically save time by viewing and modifying relevant object
properties right at your cursor.
Efficient User Interface Eases Working with Multiple Files
Working with several files doesn’t have to be painful anymore. The
Quick View feature uses thumbnails in addition to file names, so you can
visually find and open the correct drawing file and layout even faster than
before. Within the Menu Browser you can also quickly browse files, examine
thumbnail images, and get detailed information about file size and file
creator.
Communicate
Communicate Quickly and Easily with AutoCAD
Share critical design data securely, efficiently, and accurately with
AutoCAD® 3D CAD software. Experience the benefits of native DWG™
support, one of the world‘s most widely used design data formats,
allowing you to keep everyone in the loop at all times. Take your ideas to the
next level with presentation-ready graphics, rendering tools, and the best
plotting and 3D printing capabilities in the business. It’s communication
at its best.
Save and Share Files with DWG
Save and share files with confidence. DWG™ technology from Autodesk
is the authentic and accurate way to store and share design data when working
with anyone in the industry. Nothing offers more integrity and reliability for
your data.

Enhanced PDF Support
Sharing and reusing designs has never been easier thanks to enhanced PDF
support within AutoCAD. Publishing improvements include smaller file sizes
and TrueType font support. And new import and underlay capabilities mean you
can bring PDF files directly into AutoCAD drawings.
