Good book, new user, already whining...

Hi!

New to forum, old and tired with Acad. Happy to find this forum, already found a forgotten command - pdfframe, saved my butt. I ask you what kind of program would have the command pdfframe and imageframe be separate commands, really?

ANYWAY! Are there any 2010 Lite books out yet that would get a recommendation? Still a bit of a Luddite, I need the security of a manual to fall back on.

ps. Is there a section here where we can bag on Autodesk? Why does everyone on the official forum say Aca instead of Acad? Like it's too much effort to type the extra d?

Welcome to the forums Kage, have fun, lighten up a bit.

 

Like Skipso points out, lots of books available online. Good deals too.

 

If at the PC (online) you might like some tutorials. Try this one, http://www.andrew.cmu.edu/course/48-568/2DVideosWEB_files/frame.htm

 

You can also download the *.pdf file and print off chapters as you need 'em.

ACA = Autocad Architecture. Different version of Autocad.
