AutoCAD Crack With Product Key PC/Windows
What is the difference between a CAD tool and a simple drafting tool? A CAD tool works with a model that is composed of multiple shapes (geometric figures) that can be combined with one another. A simple drafting tool may provide you with the ability to draw lines and arcs, and may not have the ability to cut or combine shapes or create compound or revolving forms. A CAD tool generally requires a computer with a graphics processing unit (GPU), which is a dedicated graphics processing chip that handles the operations that make up graphics applications. In simple terms, a GPU is a special computer chip that specializes in graphics processing and matrix calculations. The only programming needed in these type of apps is to define the edges and sides of the shapes, which is what the computer does with the inputs it gets from the user and any tools used.
AutoCAD is a 3D-based CAD/drafting software application that can do a wide variety of both 2D and 3D tasks. Autodesk has released a cloud version of the software called AutoCAD Cloud, which users can access from any internet-connected device and any internet browser on the device. The cloud version of AutoCAD also provides users with the ability to collaborate on projects in real-time. The app is also part of the Autodesk 360 family of software products. Autodesk also offers an Android mobile app called AutoCAD Mobile, which allows users to access AutoCAD on their Android smartphone or tablet. AutoCAD Mobile does not have 3D capabilities, but it does have 2D and 3D templates and comes with cloud-based drawing creation tools. AutoCAD Mobile is free and can be downloaded from Google Play.
Autodesk AutoCAD is a computer-aided design (CAD) and drafting software that allows users to create 2D and 3D drawings for a variety of purposes.
A quick introduction to AutoCAD:
AutoCAD is designed for engineers, architects, drafters, and general do-it-yourselfers who need to create engineering designs and drawings. The app is also used in education, especially in architecture. AutoCAD is a part of the Autodesk 360 software family, which includes a host of other apps such as AutoCAD Architecture, AutoCAD Plant 3D, AutoCAD Civil 3D, Autodesk Revit, Autodesk Revit Architecture, Autodesk 3ds Max, Autodesk Navis

3D and 2D GIS functionality 
In addition to CAD, AutoCAD can be used for GIS and map and data visualization. The CAD Engine, or AutoCAD's core technology, supports more than twenty CAD file formats, including the three-dimensional CAD files natively supported by AutoCAD: stereolithography (STL), point cloud (POINT), traditional CAD files, and native files in CAD format. The DXF format for two-dimensional (2D) drawings, drawing exchange format (DXF), is supported natively. A vector projection of a drawing (such as STP and PostScript) is commonly employed to display the 2D drawing. It is possible to print a DXF file through an AutoCAD drawing.
 PDF 
To prepare for the release of AutoCAD 2012, PDF was rewritten to include full PDF 1.5 support, including font selection, Fax/Voice, and non-printing color and font settings. The font and color settings can be used directly to create PDF files. The font selection feature is built into the GUI as a drop-down menu. If the user selects a font that is not available, the system prints the character map as well as the character code map. If the selected font is available, the character map is used. However, the font can still be edited or removed. The new PDF feature is available in AutoCAD 2012 and earlier versions of AutoCAD.
 Additional features 
 Python 
Since 2005, AutoCAD has included Python scripting support. One of the first versions of Python was AutoCAD 2000. AutoCAD 2007 introduced a set of open source packages named PyTAN, which provide a framework for AutoCAD scripting. AutoCAD 2008 added the Autodesk Python Add-In API.
In 2013, AutoCAD was updated to include full Python scripting capability. Since AutoCAD 2016, Python scripting is enabled by default. AutoCAD is not only designed to be used by Python developers; it was also designed to be used by CAD users who want to code or automate their CAD tasks.
AutoCAD can be extended using Python code. The core Python modules for AutoCAD are written in C++ and are compatible with Python. As AutoCAD is a complex program, the Python language is relatively simple to understand. Also, the Python API allows dynamic binding. For example, modules can be registered automatically on the fly at the beginning of an
