AutoCAD For Dummies, in FULL COLOR, shows first-time AutoCAD users how to create complex technical drawings in a gentle and humorous way. Topics covered include creating a basic layout; using AutoCAD DesignCenter; drawing and editing; working with dimensions; plotting; using blocks; adding text to drawings; and sharing their drawings via the Internet. The full color allows readers to discern the importance of AutoCAD's Model view, which shows different line weights for printing in different colors. In addition, the interface is easier to understand in color than in black and white, because AutoCAD makes extensive use of color in its interface. The next version of the book updates the new features that improve ease-of-use and performance that matter to beginners and gets them working in AutoCAD right away!
