AutoCAD LT

No matter what phase of the 2D design process you find yourself in, AutoCAD LT® 2007 makes it more productive. From drafting to publishing to sharing, new tools and features focus on getting you through your everyday tasks quicker and with fewer errors. Simply put, you'll create, collaborate, and deliver more efficiently than ever.
  • Efficient drafting means across-the-board improvements to help ensure that the time-consuming tasks you do every day won't slow you down.
  • Simplified data exchange leads to fast, secure collaboration among team members no matter where they are—because the quicker you share, the quicker you finish.
  • Painless plotting means you can spend more time on the front end designing and less time on plotting.
