AutoCAD vs AutoCAD LT — Which Should You Learn?
AutoCAD LT is the lower-cost version with 2D drafting only — no 3D, no rendering, no API access. If you work in architecture or interior design and only need 2D plans, sections, and elevations, LT is perfectly sufficient. If you need 3D modelling or work in engineering, the full AutoCAD version is the right choice. We cover both — just let us know when you book and we'll advise you.
