AutoCAD 2018 comes with a simplified Chinese interface and supports both 32-bit and 64-bit systems on Windows 7, 8, and 10. The software introduces a variety of new and enhanced features, including a new tool called "Print Studio" for sending models to 3D printers. Additionally, it offers minor updates such as smart annotations and resizable dialog boxes. With AutoCAD, you can accurately share design data with clients and experience the powerful advantages of the native DWG format!
1. PDF Import
Import geometry from PDFs, including SHX font files, fills, raster images, and TrueType text.
2. External File Reference Repair
Utilize tools to fix broken paths in external reference files, saving time and reducing frustration.
3. Object Selection Persistence
Selected objects remain in the selection set even when you pan or zoom off-screen.
4. Text to Multiline Text Conversion
Convert combinations of text and multiline text objects into a single multiline text object.
5. User Interface Enhancements
Work intuitively with familiar dialog boxes and toolbars.
6. Shared Design Views
Publish design views of your drawings to secure locations for viewing and sharing in web browsers.
7. High-Resolution Display Support
Enjoy a superior viewing experience even on 4K and higher resolution monitors.
8. AutoCAD Mobile App
View, create, edit, and share CAD drawings on your mobile device using the AutoCAD mobile app.
Software Features
1. Streamlined Migration
Migrating is now more manageable with a new interface that organizes AutoCAD custom settings into groups and categories for generating migration summary reports.
2. Enhanced PDF Support
Import geometry, fills, raster images, and TrueType text from PDF files into your current drawing. PDF data can be sourced from PDFs attached to your current drawing or from any specified PDF file. Data accuracy is limited by the precision of the PDF file and the supported object types. Certain features (such as PDF scale, layers, line weights, and colors) can be preserved.
3. Shared Design Views
Share design views securely on Autodesk A360 by publishing them to a location accessible via a generated link. Recipients do not need an Autodesk A360 account or any additional software to view the shared views in any supported web browser, including Chrome, Firefox, and others that support WebGL for 3D graphics.
4. Associative Center Marks and Centerlines
Create center marks associated with arcs and circles, as well as centerlines associated with selected line and polyline segments. This new feature is provided as an alternative method without replacing your current workflow for compatibility reasons.
5. Coordination Model: Object Snap Support
Use standard 2D endpoint and center object snaps to specify precise locations on attached coordination models. This feature is available only on 64-bit systems.
