'''AutoCAD''' is a [[computer-aided design|CAD]] (Computer Aided Design) [[software application]] for [[2d computer graphics|2D]] and [[3d computer graphics|3D]] [[design]] and [[technical drawing|drafting]], developed and sold by [[Autodesk]], Inc. Initially released in late 1982, AutoCAD was one of the first CAD programs to run on [[personal computer]]s, and notably the [[IBM PC]]. Most CAD software at the time ran on graphics [[computer terminal|terminals]] connected to [[mainframe computer]]s or [[minicomputer|mini-computers]].


In earlier releases, AutoCAD used primitive entities &mdash; such as lines, polylines, circles, arcs, and text &mdash; as the foundation for more complex objects. Since the mid-1990s, AutoCAD has supported custom objects through its C++ API. Modern AutoCAD includes a full set of basic solid modeling and 3D tools, but lacks some of the more advanced capabilities of [[solid modeling]] applications{{Fact|date=April 2008}}.<!--Is that bad?-->
'''Victor Jules Bergeron, Jr.''' ([[December 10]], [[1902]] &ndash; [[October 11]], [[1984]]) was the founder of a chain of [[Polynesia]]n-themed restaurants that bore his nickname, '''Trader Vic''', and one of two people who claimed to have invented the [[Mai Tai]]. The other was his amicable competitor for many years, [[Don the Beachcomber]].


AutoCAD supports a number of [[application programming interface]]s (APIs) for customization and automation. These include [[AutoLISP]], [[Visual LISP]], [[Visual Basic for Applications|VBA]], [[Microsoft .NET|.NET]] and [[ObjectARX]]. ObjectARX is a [[C++]] class library, which was also the base for products extending AutoCAD functionality to specific fields, to create products such as AutoCAD Architecture, AutoCAD Electrical, AutoCAD Civil 3D, or third-party AutoCAD-based applications.
Bergeron attended [[Heald College]] in [[San Francisco, California]].<ref>[http://www.heald.edu/about_heald/history.htm Heald College: Career Education and Hands-On Learning<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref> Starting with $700 in 1934, Bergeron opened a small bar/restaurant across from his parent's grocery store in [[Oakland, California|Oakland]], [[California]] named Hinky Dink's. As its popularity spread, the menu and decor developed an increasingly tropical flair; Hinky Dink's soon became Trader Vic's. The empire of restaurants is credited as one of the first successful themed chains, which many others followed.


AutoCAD's native file format, [[.dwg|DWG]], and to a lesser extent, its interchange file format, [[DXF]], have become [[de facto]] standards for CAD data [[interoperability]]. AutoCAD in recent years has included support for [[DWF]], a format developed and promoted by Autodesk for publishing CAD data. In 2006, Autodesk estimated the number of active DWG files to be in excess of one billion. In the past, Autodesk has estimated the total number of DWG files in existence to be more than three billion.
During the [[Tiki culture]] fad of the [[1950s|'50s]] and [[1960s|'60s]], as many as 25 Trader Vic's restaurants were in operation around the world, all featuring the popular mix of [[Polynesian Culture|Polynesian]] artifacts, unique cocktails, and exotic cuisine. In the 1980's and 1990's the empire began to shrink as a new generation of people had little or no connection to the restaurants' tiki theme. Poor locations or less trendy addresses also took a toll on the chain's popularity. While many of the original locations have since closed, Trader Vic's is experiencing an explosive resurgence as new generation discovers the strong drinks and unique tiki atmosphere. Twenty-five locations exist around the globe today equaling the previous chain record, with a few more due to open shortly.


AutoCAD currently runs exclusively on [[Microsoft]] desktop [[operating system]]s. Versions for [[Unix]] and [[Macintosh]] were released in the 1980s and 1990s, but these were later dropped. AutoCAD can run on an [[emulator]] or [[compatibility layer]] like [[VMware Workstation]] or [[Wine (software)|Wine]], albeit subject to various performance issues that can often arise when working with 3D objects or large drawings.

It is also available for purchase at computer stores, unlike AutoCAD which has to be purchased from an official Autodesk dealer. It was developed so Autodesk could have an entry-level CAD package available to compete in that price class. Today AutoCAD LT is marketed as a CAD package for those who only need 2D functionality. Compared to the full edition of AutoCAD, AutoCAD LT lacks several features. Most notably, it has no 3D modeling capabilities (though it has a full suite of 3D viewing functions for looking at 3D models created in other CAD packages) and does not include any programming interfaces, such as support for most 3rd party programs and does not support LISP programs.

Autodesk has also developed a few vertical programs, for discipline-specific enhancements. [[AutoCAD Architecture]] (formerly Architectural Desktop), for example, permits architectural designers to draw 3D objects such as walls, doors and windows, with more intelligent data associated with them, rather than simple objects such as lines and circles. The data can be programmed to represent specific architectural products sold in the construction industry, or extracted into a data file for pricing, materials estimation, and other values related to the objects represented. Additional tools allow designers to generate standard 2D drawings, such as elevations and sections, from a 3D architectural model. Similarly, Civil Design, Civil Design 3D, and Civil Design Professional allow data-specific objects to be used, allowing standard civil engineering calculations to be made and represented easily. [[AutoCAD Electrical]], AutoCAD Civil 3D, AutoCAD Map 3D, [[AutoCAD Mechanical]], AutoCAD MEP and AutoCAD P&ID are other examples of industry-specific CAD applications built on the AutoCAD platform.

AutoCAD 2009 with the Classic User Interface

AutoCAD is a CAD (Computer Aided Design) software application for 2D and 3D design and drafting, developed and sold by Autodesk, Inc. Initially released in late 1982, AutoCAD was one of the first CAD programs to run on personal computers, and notably the IBM PC. Most CAD software at the time ran on graphics terminals connected to mainframe computers or mini-computers.

In earlier releases, AutoCAD used primitive entities — such as lines, polylines, circles, arcs, and text — as the foundation for more complex objects. Since the mid-1990s, AutoCAD has supported custom objects through its C++ API. Modern AutoCAD includes a full set of basic solid modeling and 3D tools, but lacks some of the more advanced capabilities of solid modeling applications[citation needed].

AutoCAD supports a number of application programming interfaces (APIs) for customization and automation. These include AutoLISP, Visual LISP, VBA, .NET and ObjectARX. ObjectARX is a C++ class library, which was also the base for products extending AutoCAD functionality to specific fields, to create products such as AutoCAD Architecture, AutoCAD Electrical, AutoCAD Civil 3D, or third-party AutoCAD-based applications.

AutoCAD's native file format, DWG, and to a lesser extent, its interchange file format, DXF, have become de facto standards for CAD data interoperability. AutoCAD in recent years has included support for DWF, a format developed and promoted by Autodesk for publishing CAD data. In 2006, Autodesk estimated the number of active DWG files to be in excess of one billion. In the past, Autodesk has estimated the total number of DWG files in existence to be more than three billion.

AutoCAD currently runs exclusively on Microsoft desktop operating systems. Versions for Unix and Macintosh were released in the 1980s and 1990s, but these were later dropped. AutoCAD can run on an emulator or compatibility layer like VMware Workstation or Wine, albeit subject to various performance issues that can often arise when working with 3D objects or large drawings.

AutoCAD and AutoCAD LT are available for German, French, Italian, Spanish, Japanese, Korean, Chinese Simplified (No LT), Chinese Traditional, Russian, Czech, Polish, Hungarian (No LT), Brazilian Portuguese (No LT), Danish, Dutch, Swedish, Finnish, Norwegian and Vietnamese. The extent of localization varies from full translation of the product to documentation only.

AutoCAD LT

AutoCAD LT is a "scaled down" version of AutoCAD. It costs less (approx. $1200.00 USD versus around $4,000 USD for the full AutoCAD). It is also available for purchase at computer stores, unlike AutoCAD which has to be purchased from an official Autodesk dealer. It was developed so Autodesk could have an entry-level CAD package available to compete in that price class. Today AutoCAD LT is marketed as a CAD package for those who only need 2D functionality. Compared to the full edition of AutoCAD, AutoCAD LT lacks several features. Most notably, it has no 3D modeling capabilities (though it has a full suite of 3D viewing functions for looking at 3D models created in other CAD packages) and does not include any programming interfaces, such as support for most 3rd party programs and does not support LISP programs. A full listing of differences is on the Autodesk website. AutoCAD LT originated by taking the codebase of AutoCAD and commenting out substantial portions, which allowed AutoCAD and AutoCAD LT to be developed simultaneously.

AutoCAD Student Versions

AutoCAD is licensed at a significant discount over commercial retail pricing to qualifying students and teachers, with both a 14 month and perpetual license available. The student version of AutoCAD is functionally identical to the full commercial version, with one exception: DWG files created or edited by a student version have an internal bit-flag set (the "educational flag"). When such a DWG file is printed by any version of AutoCAD (commercial or student), the output will include a plot stamp / banner on all four sides. Objects created in the Student Version cannot be used for commercial use. These Student Version objects can and will 'infect' a commercial version DWG file if imported.

The Autodesk student community provides registered students with free access to different Autodesk applications. While AutoCAD is not available as standalone downloadable application, students have access to some other applications, which include AutoCAD, such as Civil3D or AutoCAD Architecture.

Vertical programs

Autodesk has also developed a few vertical programs, for discipline-specific enhancements. AutoCAD Architecture (formerly Architectural Desktop), for example, permits architectural designers to draw 3D objects such as walls, doors and windows, with more intelligent data associated with them, rather than simple objects such as lines and circles. The data can be programmed to represent specific architectural products sold in the construction industry, or extracted into a data file for pricing, materials estimation, and other values related to the objects represented. Additional tools allow designers to generate standard 2D drawings, such as elevations and sections, from a 3D architectural model. Similarly, Civil Design, Civil Design 3D, and Civil Design Professional allow data-specific objects to be used, allowing standard civil engineering calculations to be made and represented easily. AutoCAD Electrical, AutoCAD Civil 3D, AutoCAD Map 3D, AutoCAD Mechanical, AutoCAD MEP and AutoCAD P&ID are other examples of industry-specific CAD applications built on the AutoCAD platform.
