AutoCAD is a commercial software application for 2D and 3D computer-aided design (CAD) and drafting — available since 1982 as a desktop application and since 2010 as a mobile, web- and cloud-based app marketed as AutoCAD 360.
Developed and marketed by Autodesk, AutoCAD was first released in December 1982, running on microcomputers with internal graphics controllers. Prior to the introduction of AutoCAD, most commercial CAD programs ran on mainframe computers or minicomputers, with each CAD operator (user) working at a separate graphics terminal.
AutoCAD is used across a wide range of industries, by architects, project managers, engineers, graphic designers, and other professionals. It is supported by 750 training centers worldwide as of 1994.
As Autodesk's flagship product, by March 1986 AutoCAD had become the most ubiquitous CAD program worldwide.
AutoCAD software provides the design and the shape for the products that needs to be created. - It provides flexible and user friendly features with the tools to design the applications and document the workflows.- This involves aggregate and import models for the formats and usually allows the design to get created without any change in source model. - It provides tools to provide the formats by detailed designing the layouts and drawings using the views automatically. - It also has the provision to create detailed design layouts and views can be drawn automatically using the source model.
I am sharing this information which useful for AutoCAD user as well as others...
Please Read carefully.
- AutoCAD is used to create the computer aided designs or software applications including drafting. - AutoCAD develops the application in both the 2D and 3D formats and provide the information to the application. - AutoCAD provides tools to design the softwares used in the industry, architectures and project management. - It provides an easy way to design the software with the designs and architect it according to the need.
- AutoCAD software is used to draw and design the documents and the applications with easy customization options.- AutoCAD provides a platform to be used by professionals to create the designs and 3D models. - It allows the creation of the professional technical drawings and conceptual designs used for representation of the logics. - It allows the drafter to provide the finishing touches and designing with the detailing and linking to the online data. - It provides suppliers or operational professionals to review the drawings and modify it according to the requirements.

To help with it's automated functions a designer, an engineer, to do his(her) tasks faster and better. High level of attention always required. My thoughts after more than 15 years of "acad".
Kind regards,
AUTOCAD is 2d and 3d Modelling software which is mainly used for drafting and detailling purposes.
main purpose is to reduce project time and cost.
AutoCad or any other CAD program have the same purpose.... making lines and shapes into an electronic drawing for production to manufacture.
The point is CAD programs been developed to save time to create drawings and reproducing (copy) them.
For those which do not have ever made a drawing by hand on a piece of parchment paper:
This has been done by hand, usually done by pencil and then by ink (could be very messy), to reproduce such an drawing been time consuming and your fingertips may had markings of acid .
To design or Create a soft copy of the drawingsc/ Diagrams which shall be formattable and can be easily viewed (Zoom) through differenet angle and perspectives.
To pre-design our dreams that will be necessary while execution.
auto cad is mainly to draw a mechanical designs and construction drawings.
