Beginning AutoCAD : For Release 12

AutoCAD - a complex package with a wide variety of functions and options - is by far the most widely used package for training.

A beginner's text, this book describes only the most essential features of AutoCAD.

Specialized applications or advanced features that would only serve to overwhelm the novice are avoided.

Assuming a minimum background knowledge, and none of CAD systems, the author works through the basic functions logically and presents simple exercises for the learner to follow.

These can be used whether learning with a keyboard, mouse or puck.

This book is designed for students and retraining adults taking CGLI 4351, CGLI 230, BTEC Module 1673C and SCOTVEC units 2400310 and 74807.
