Drafting Week 1

This week i learned how to navigate the ribbon on autocad and learned a few of the buttons and their functions. I learned that there are six essential buttons that will help you draw anything on autocad.

DWG- Is the format in which autoCAD saves its files.  This format may help you open up drawings from the older software into the newer ones.

DXF- Is a format in which it allows you to operate autocad in other programs.

DWF- A lightweight drawing file format for posting drawings on the Web or sharing them with people who dont have AutoCad.

BAK- Files in Autocad created in the save commands. You may also convert BAK files to DWG.
