AutoCAD LT
The software for 2D CAD offers professional tools for mechanical design, documentation and simulation.
Always one step ahead when designing, drafting and documenting precise 2D geometry. With AutoCAD LT easily and precisely create 2D designs, document them in a first-class manner and share them with your team.
You can choose from an extensive package of tools for editing, designing and labeling. You also work with AutoCAD LT efficiently and optimized through a customizable user interface and adaptable workflows with AutoLISP.

- Precise 2D designs
- Design and draw anytime, anywhere
- Flexibility and accessibility


Precise 2D designs
With AutoCAD LT you can create precise 2D drawings effortlessly and in the shortest possible time. The user-friendly drawing tools make your work much easier.
In addition, you can increase your productivity by automating routine tasks and optimizing workflows – thanks to the integrated AutoLISP tools.
Design and draw anytime, anywhere
Now you can stay connected regardless of location and work on projects from anywhere. View, edit, annotate and share CAD drawings via a simple user interface on any computer. Simply log in and get started. No software installation required.


Flexibility and accessibility
Now you can use Autodesk products from anywhere and even view, edit & comment offline. Create CAD drawings from anywhere and in real time. With AutoCAD Web you can even open your DWG files directly on the construction site or on the go.
What’s new?
Using Autodesk AI, you can quickly search your drawings for objects based on selected geometry to convert them into copies of a newly defined block, an existing block, or a recently used block.
The familiar SCHRAFF command has been updated so that you can now design your constructions even more clearly. Add textures to your drawings using patterns, fills and paths – without predefined shapes or enclosed perimeters.
Access version history data in detailed multi-user event logs and track them using file comparison tools.
