Yet another book question

colekartom — Wed, 25 Oct 2017 12:16:31 GMT

Hello all,

I apologize for rehashing this again. I am still interested in getting a book on Autocad. I am using autocad LT 2017 for mac. I know that Windows and Mac versions are different. Would a windows book be totally useless to me? or are there just slight differences in the gui? Also, there are books available for earlier versions of Mac (2013). What would be more useful to me, a mac version book based on 2013 or a windows version book based on 2017? Thanks for your time

Hi Karrie,

There are a lot of video tutorials related to AutoCAD 2017 for Mac.

A good example of book on AutoCAD for Mac is:

https://www.amazon.com/AutoCAD-2013-Mac-Step-Time/dp/0981986781/ref=sr_1_6?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1508939623&sr=1-6&keywords=autocad+for+mac

But it is based on 2013 version. A lot of new features were added since that time, plus the User Interface was significantly redesigned in the 2017 version. On the other hand AutoCAD basics are still basics...

Well, I know only one book which shows AutoCAD 2017 for Mac User Interface and some (I beleive) new features. It is a bit specific and covers AutoCAD 2018 for Windows along with AutoCAD 2017 for Mac:
