In-Depth Information
After you get the lines and text right, you may be justified in thinking that your work in
AutoCAD is done. But AutoCAD enables you to do so much more! Blocks and external
references help you manage data within drawings, between drawings, and across a net-
work. Parametric drawing lets you maintain the intent of your designs. If you plan to
share drawings (whether among your own projects, with people in your office, or with
folks in other companies), you need to think about consistency in presentation and
drawing organization.
The Internet is the biggest ongoing swap meet in human history, and AutoCAD offers
some unique trading possibilities — and potential pitfalls — via e-mail and the Web.
With the information in this part, you'll be teaching AutoCAD how to give and receive in
no time.
