Harnessing AutoCAD R14 Windows

Harnessing AutoCAD, fully updated to Release 14, provides a wealth of information about AutoCAD fundamentals. Our best-selling book, Harnessing AutoCAD breaks down every AutoCAD command, conveniently summarizing its entry options, and reinforces this knowledge through numerous illustrations, examples and step-by-step exercises. The exercises for each chapter are introduced by an overview, and followed by input methods and drawing set-up. Especially tricky commands and useful tips are clearly indicated as "Points of Interest." Each chapter concludes with review questions designed to allow users to check their progress and put newly learned commands to use. As Harnessing AutoCAD progresses, users learn 2D and 3D concepts and commands as well as customizing features. An Online CompanionÖ is also available and provides students with the opportunity to access the Autodesk Press web site for job resources, professional organizations, updates, and more.
