It is supported by 750 training centers worldwide as of 1994.[1]As Autodesk's flagship product, by March 1986 AutoCAD had become the most ubiquitous CAD program worldwide.[4]Contents1 History2 Design2.1 File formats and versions2.1.1 Compatibility with other software2.2 Languages2.3 Extensions2.4 Vertical integration3 Variants3.1 AutoCAD LT3.2 AutoCAD 3603.3 Student versions4 Ports4.1 Android4.2 Microsoft Windows4.3 Mac OS5 See also6 References7 External linksHistoryAutoCAD was derived from a program begun in 1977 and released in 1979[5] called Interact CAD, also referred to in early Autodesk documents as MicroCAD, which was written prior to Autodesk's (then Marinchip Software Partners) formation by Autodesk cofounder Mike Riddle.[6][7]The first version by Autodesk was demonstrated at the 1982 Comdex and released that December.[8] The 2016 release marked the 30th major release of AutoCAD for Windows.
