Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
AutoCAD 2000 is an update of the popular CAD draughting package. It offers several features new to this version which allow the user to increase their draughting skills. This text introduces the reader to these amendments, after ensuring they first understand basic 2D draughting skills. The text then moves on to more demanding topics such as 3D modelling, customization and AutoLISP programming.
