AutoCAD (2022)
AutoCAD started as AutoPLAN, a drawing package built around a graphical programming language. AutoPLAN was launched as a stand-alone product in 1985 with 2D drafting as a key feature. With the release of AutoCAD in 1987, AutoPLAN grew into a full-fledged 2D and 3D CAD program. Later, in 1990, AutoCAD was renamed to AutoCAD and the first-generation version of AutoCAD, 2D Drafting was released as AutoCAD 2D, followed by the release of AutoCAD 3D in 1994. In 1997, the first major update to AutoCAD's software infrastructure, the Autodesk Engineering Suite, was released. In 2003, AutoCAD MEP, a multidisciplinary program, was released to the market. In 2008, Autodesk released AutoCAD 360, a web-based version of AutoCAD. In 2009, AutoCAD 2009 was released, making AutoCAD 2009 the first release of AutoCAD in the Autodesk’s legacy numbering system, using the year instead of a decimal number (for instance, AutoCAD 2009 is version number 115, not 15. In 2011, AutoCAD 2014 was released and AutoCAD 2016 was released in February 2015.
Design overview
In 1992, Steve White, a member of the original AutoPLAN team, discovered that there were dozens of special features in AutoPLAN that were not implemented in AutoCAD's 2D version. These features included some basic lighting techniques (linear lighting, shadows, etc.), many basic drawing operations (extrude, offset, etc.), as well as most common engineering design tools (drafting and estimating). In other words, AutoPLAN 2D was not a full-fledged professional-grade AutoCAD. To address this, White took all of the AutoPLAN 2D code and re-written it into AutoCAD 2D, adding many new features and making the resulting code more consistent. For AutoCAD 2D, White also developed a new file format that preserved the continuity between 2D and 3D drawings, but was different enough to handle 3D features without the 3D file format becoming too complex. The result was AutoCAD 2D Drafting, which was released in 1991.
As the scope of AutoPLAN grew, the programming language became impractical to implement. White left Autodesk to start a new company, Aruco Software
AutoCAD Crack License Code & Keygen
Raster scanning 
AutoCAD Crack Free Download allows users to import and export raster images in three different formats: TIFF, JPEG, and PNG.
Raster images can be imported using the Raster Importer, and exported using the Raster Exporter, both of which are part of AutoCAD 2022 Crack.
AutoCAD uses the Flexera File Conversion Engine, Flexera's native file conversion engine, to convert raster images from one file format to another.  It can also be used to export a vector image to a raster format.  It also allows you to rotate and mirror images.
AutoCAD supports the Exporter/Importer for KML.
AutoCAD allows users to edit and convert multiple raster images at once. 
AutoCAD Layers allows users to export and insert raster images to and from layers.
Importing and Exporting Layers in Raster Images
The import and export layers functionality allows importing and exporting multiple layers in one single file. Importing and Exporting Layers in Raster Images allows you to work with multiple layers without the need to split them into different files.
AutoCAD Layers also allows you to extract the geometry from a raster image.
TIFF and JPEG raster images are less suitable for larger images, because the compression is not suitable.
Converting raster images
AutoCAD also allows you to convert images from one file format to another. The simplest case of converting is between one raster image and another.
The easiest way to convert a raster image is to use File Conversion Engine, which is an easy tool in AutoCAD.
AutoCAD also allows you to make a new raster image from an old one.
You can also use the Data Management dialog box to make a new raster image from an old one.
Importing and Exporting Vector Images
The vector image import and export tools allow you to import and export a vector image. There are three different file formats for import: AutoCAD DXF, AutoCAD DWG, and AutoCAD STEP.
Importing and Exporting Vector Images
AutoCAD allows you to import and export a vector image.
Using the File Conversion Engine, you can import and export any vector image.
You can use the Data Management dialog to import and export a vector image.
AutoCAD also allows you to import
