Autodesk today has announced the addition of AutoCAD LT 2012 for Mac, in addition to a new 2012 version of the full version of AutoCAD for Mac. This is the first time in history that the CAD giant has made a native version of its light-weight version of AutoCAD.
AutoCAD LT for Mac is priced at less than 1000.USD and therefore fits under the price lid for the Mac App Store. Thus, it becomes the first highend professional CAD package at that price level to be sold through Mac App Store.
AutoCAD LT 2012 for Mac features numerous native Mac OS X features, such as support for Cover Flow, Multi-touch gestures, native OS X behaviors and more.
In addition to both the full and LT versions of AutoCAD, AutoCAD WS for Mac is being released for the first time today as well. To read our full report go here. Architosh will publish “notes” from a press event earlier this week later today. Stay tuned!
