AutoCAD 2010: More Power, More Innovation
With AutoCAD 2010 computer-aided design software, you can tackle your most challenging problems with ease. Create almost any shape imaginable with free-form design tools, cut revision time and keep everything connected with parametric drawing, share your ideas as PDF, or bring them to life with 3D printing. Nothing takes you from idea to reality faster.
Design Your Ideas
The first step in realizing your ideas is to create them! You need design tools that enable you to transfer ideas from your mind to the drawing with minimal effort and disruption to your creative process. You want tools that are easy to find and access, with minimal picks and maximum automation. You don’t want to draw by trial and error. Instead, you want dynamic visual feedback providing assurance that the design in the drawing matches the idea in your head. The process for creating conceptual designs should be intuitive, taking advantage of your existing AutoCAD knowledge.

Learn more about the powerful new capabilities of AutoCAD 2010. Watch as AutoCAD guru Lynn Allen walks through new features, highlighting free-form design tools, parametric drawing, and many more new capabilities.
Cut Design Time with Parametric Drawing
Dramatically slash your design revision time with parametric drawing. By defining persistent relationships between objects, parallel lines remain parallel and concentric circles remain centered, all automatically.
Free-form Design Tools Provide Freedom to Create
You now have the power to design ideas in almost any form you can imagine. Simply push/pull faces, edges, and vertices to model complex shapes, add smooth surfaces, and much more.
Enhanced PDF Support
Sharing and reusing designs has never been easier thanks to enhanced PDF support within AutoCAD. Publishing improvements include smaller file sizes and TrueType font support. And new import and underlay capabilities mean you can bring PDF files directly into AutoCAD drawings.
Send an AutoCAD Model to a 3D Printer
Do more than just visualize your designs—make them real. Whatever you’re designing can be made into a physical prototype through a 3D printer, either your own or through a connected service.
Dynamic Blocks Easier to Author and Edit
Thanks to several enhancements, Dynamic Blocks are now easier to author and edit. With improved display of action objects and improved highlighting for objects associated with actions, Dynamic Blocks tools help save critical time documenting your designs.
