1) What is Autocad?
Autocad is a software program built to design and shape the 2-D and 3-D images. It provides the
tools by which a detail design of the product can be done. It also has the option to create detailed
design layout, which can be automatically drawn by using source model.
2) What are the uses of Autocad?
Autocad can be used by the professionals to visualize the imaginary view of the product on a
computer system. In Autocad, it is possible by the drafter to mae the changes in the product
before it gets finalized for design. It also gives the freedom for the designer to implement theirvarious ideas and represent them to the suppliers or their clients.
3) What are the fields where you see maximum use of Autocad?
Autocad is more popular among the architects, engineers and builders for developing theirbuilding layouts.
4) What is the file formats used in design?
In Autocad, .dwg file format is used for design, it can be an interchangeable format. !he fileformat which is interchangeable has the e"tension as D#$ and operates data operability. It
provides different languages which can be used as per the re%uirement.

include 3D printing as well. ariants allows you to use the functionality of different applicationaccording to the re%uirement.
") What are the #enefits of using Autocad?
Autocad has replaced the traditional method of drafting and designing which was made by
pencil, drafting boards, triangles and compass with ust a set of a computer program. !he
benefits are immense lie4
aves time and helps to increase the productivity
It helps to streamline your design and documentation worflow
(hysical 53D6 prototype of the design can be %uicly created by using Autocad
3D models can be directly imported into Autocad by using application lie olid7ors
!edious wor of drafting can be done easily and you can design and re-design the product
in short span of time.
$) What is the %rocess to draw a line more than one time and sae it automatically?
7hen a need arises to draw a new line the process opens up a new file in a new session to write
the file. Autocad allows saving multiple drawing for each session. !he files are saved by usingthe file e"tension .dwg and it can be modified by using the browser.

- !he empty layers can be removed from the drawing by using the all obects residing at once
place.
- !he references of the layers are also removed so that it appears to be empty and can easily be
created.
- If the layer is empty then the (';B will not be able to remove the layers from the drawing.
- !he layer can be made frozen on the viewport that is visible to the obect and provide the
definition of the obect too.
- !he removing of the layer is possible due to the drawing that can be made using the #(*;!
command and the result can be created in the D#$ file.

Autocad is a software program built to design and shape the 2-D and 3-D images. It provides the
tools by which a detail design of the product can be done. It also has the option to create detailed
design layout, which can be automatically drawn by using source model.
2) What are the uses of Autocad?
Autocad can be used by the professionals to visualize the imaginary view of the product on acomputer system. In Autocad, it is possible by the drafter to mae the changes in the product
before it gets finalized for design. It also gives the freedom for the designer to implement theirvarious ideas and represent them to the suppliers or their clients.
3) What are the fields where you see maximum use of Autocad?
Autocad is more popular among the architects, engineers and builders for developing their
building layouts.
4) What is the file formats used in design?
In Autocad, .dwg file format is used for design, it can be an interchangeable format. !he file
format which is interchangeable has the e"tension as D#$ and operates data operability. Itprovides different languages which can be used as per the re%uirement.

commands +A. etting of /0DDIA to 1, allows the dialog bo"es to run the command. !heuser interface creation also needs the command line to display the entire file so that it can be
edited or customized easily.
6) What is the function of ertical integration?
!o enhance the architectural designing of 3D obect Autocad uses the vertical integrationprogram. !he 3D obects can include walls and other things that are associated with the data
having information and simple obects lie lines and circles. !he data is programmed in such
away that it represents only the architectural products and the e"tracted files, and can bemodified according to the re%uirement.
!) What is the use of ariant in Autocad?
In Autocad variants are used to help in creation, visualizing and rendering the 3D models that
include 3D printing as well. ariants allows you to use the functionality of different applicationaccording to the re%uirement.
") What are the #enefits of using Autocad?
Autocad has replaced the traditional method of drafting and designing which was made by
pencil, drafting boards, triangles and compass with ust a set of a computer program. !he
benefits are immense lie4

It helps to streamline your design and documentation worflow
(hysical 53D6 prototype of the design can be %uicly created by using Autocad
3D models can be directly imported into Autocad by using application lie olid7ors
!edious wor of drafting can be done easily and you can design and re-design the product
in short span of time.
$) What is the %rocess to draw a line more than one time and sae it automatically?
7hen a need arises to draw a new line the process opens up a new file in a new session to writethe file. Autocad allows saving multiple drawing for each session. !he files are saved by using

!o hide the specific layers while plotting, you can use various options lie turning off the layers
for plotting , freezing the layers and turning off. !urning off for plotting will show the layers on
the screen but won6t output on printing. !he layers that are turned off will hide the layers and
also it will not appear on the screen.
15) What is the %rocess of co%ying the dimension styles from one drawing to another in
Autocad?
/opying of dimension styles re%uire setting up the particular dimension style. !o copy a
dimension style, a new document has to be created. *nce it is created, this document will be
saved as a drawing template. A new reference will be created by new drawing template document
and it will show all the options lie layer style, units and blocs. Drawing can be done by seeing
the current drawing and dimension style would be same as the original picture.
