How can I be sure available service packs are
included in my installation?
You can include a service pack for your installation in the Service Pack section
of the Installer configuration page. Three options are available:
■ Download the available service packs from Autodesk.
■ Install a service pack from your local network drive.
■ Do not install a service pack.
If you select the option to download and apply a service pack from Autodesk,
it will be downloaded automatically. If your installation is up-to-date, a message
will tell you that a service pack is not available.
What features can I customize?
Most features are pre-selected for installation with AutoCAD LT. However,
you can de-select any feature you choose not to install or select one of the
few features that have not been pre-selected. To do so, you must first reveal
the feature tree, which is hidden when you choose a Typical install in the
configuration area. To reveal the feature tree, choose the Custom install option.
Here are the features available when you install AutoCAD LT:
■ Dictionaries: Multi-language dictionaries.
■ Fonts: AutoCAD fonts and TrueType
®
fonts.
■ Autodesk Content Explorer: Interface for quick browsing of DWG files
on local and network drives and on Autodesk Seek. Note: In order to search
network folders, the Autodesk Content Service utility must also be installed
from the Tools & Utilities component of the Installer.
■ Autodesk Seek: Web service for finding, previewing, and downloading
branded and generic building information modeling (BIM) files, models,
drawings, and product specifications directly into an active AutoCAD LT
session. AutoCAD LT users can also upload their drawings to Seek.
■ License Transfer Utility: Tool to allow users to transfer an Autodesk
product license between computers.
■ Samples: AutoCAD LT samples, and DesignCenter samples.
