AutoCAD stands for “automated computer-aided design”. It is one of several programs offered by Autodesk (formerly known as Micrografx). The company is based in San Rafael, California.

As of 2020, AutoCAD is still a widely used software package, one of the most widely used applications for desktop design.

History

1980s

AutoCAD was originally called Rastools (right tool stools). It was developed by a programmer who worked for the company who wanted an easy way to draw simple, geometric shapes. Another programmer by the name of Ken Kiefer was working on a tool to generate the drawings. Autodesk Inc. was founded in 1982 and acquired Rastools and Kiefer’s tool in 1984.

In 1983, Thomas H. Dyson (president and CEO of Autodesk) asked Don Hautala (CEO of Autodesk) and Hans Tofte (senior director of engineering) to work on the new product. Autodesk produced the first build of the software, called Rastools.

In 1985 Autodesk released the first version of AutoCAD. It was a “true CAD program” for drawing vector graphics and drafting, not as a simple tool for hand-drawing or tracing. Its user interface was very similar to Adobe Illustrator, although it was possible to move the tool cursor freely without following a drawing line. The first version of AutoCAD (1.0) only worked on Apple II computers, but it had a version on VMS.

In 1986, during the launch of AutoCAD 1.5, Autodesk announced that they would also provide a version for Microsoft Windows. The software became a popular desktop tool for all types of design, including architecture.

1990s

In 1992, Autodesk released AutoCAD Level II. It was offered on both Microsoft Windows and Apple Macintosh. In 1993 Autodesk acquired B-Brain and introduced the AcuDraw line drawing system, the first CAD system with a graphical user interface. This system and AutoCAD’s user interface were separate but complementary.

In 1994, the second version of AutoCAD came out. AutoCAD 2.0 (2D and 2.5) was a major upgrade and a complete rewrite of AutoCAD 1.5 with new command-line functionality. It was bundled with AutoC

Graphics
The 2D native format is PDF, as well as most commonly the native format of AutoCAD, drawing exchange format (DXF), as well as the file formats it imports and exports. A vector-based format is DWG, and AutoCAD can directly import and export that. 3D files can be viewed in 3D Wireframe, or 3D Section.

Drawing features
AutoCAD supports many advanced drawing features, including:
AutoLISP-based programming
Data Interchange Format (DXF) (including level of DXF support depends on the AutoCAD version)
Constrained Editing (CE)
Drawing control panel (DCP)
Dynamic Component Library (DCL)
Draping
Geographic Information Systems (GIS)
Guided Editing
Joints (J), which provide a method to make precision holes and channels (beveled edges) in a drawing. The Joint tool allows an outline to be created of the shape of the hole and a cutting path to be created to cut the hole.
Line and arc handles
Levels
Multivariate Splines
Named colors
On-screen display (OSD)
Overlays
Pathfinding
Patterns
Point creation tools
Precision Engineering (PE)
Perspective views (persp)
Proxy objects (PX)
Printing
Polar tracking
Profile views
Section planes
Section views
Shading
Sheet sets
Simple polyline object
Solid creation tools
Spatial Coordinate System (SCS)
Surface modeling tools
Symbols
3D graphics
User preferences
Vector layers
Welds
Wireframe, which is the default 3D view used to model the objects. In AutoCAD, a wireframe is similar to a 3D section. A wireframe shows the polylines that make up the model, like a 2D section. Wireframe shows all the faces of a model, unlike section view. It also shows all the edges of a model, unlike a section view.

Support
Autodesk’s support of AutoCAD is available on a subscription basis, with 2 to 5 year support contracts, or a perpetual license can be purchased. For those using AcDbXML, support is also available from Autodesk.

Subscriptions
On February 16, 2014, Autodesk announced the launch of a subscription-based service to offer both AutoCAD and AutoCAD LT
