AutoCAD 2009 2D Intermediate

About this class

This course is intended to show existing CAD users the skills required to understand and use AutoCAD more effectively in a CAD office environment. This includes building upon existing knowledge of Paper Space, configuring colour and named plot styles, layer management, attaching attribute data to symbols and extracting that information to a database, working with external reference files, and creating and working with user coordinate systems.

This course is designed for the experienced AutoCAD user who requires additional training. It incorporates the features, commands, and techniques for becoming more productive when creating, annotating, and printing drawings with AutoCAD 2009.
