Autodesk provides a complete set of tools to help designers clearly convey their design vision to clients and then quickly and accurately document those visions so that projects are completed on time and within budget. AutoCAD ® 2005 built on the dramatic productivity gains of AutoCAD ® 2004 software by adding tools that help designers efficiently manage sets of drawings. AutoCAD ® 2006 enabled designers to work even faster and smarter on a wide range of day-to-day tasks with powerful new drafting features such as Dynamic Blocks and Dynamic Input. Now, AutoCAD 2007 focuses on improving designers’ ability to create, navigate, and edit a conceptual design, clearly present the design to a nontechnical audience, and then easily document the design using all the powerful AutoCAD drafting tools. AutoCAD 2007 provides a huge productivity boost to users who currently do conceptual design in AutoCAD and to users who would like to do so. The common set of underlying technology “engines” and enhanced interface tools mean interoperability and cross-training between AutoCAD and Autodesk ® products such as Autodesk ® Revit ® Building and Autodesk Inventor ® software applications has never been better. From turning thoughts into designs to creating compelling, rich graphical presentations that market your work to documenting that work as an entire set of drawings—AutoCAD helps you realize your ideas. This Features and Benefits guide outlines the key features of AutoCAD 2007 by presenting the problems designers might currently encounter when creating and presenting conceptual designs, and by outlining the solutions provided in AutoCAD 2007. This guide also details the bottom-line benefits to designers and organizations.
