A correction to my earlier reply: AutoCad will 'print' directly to a pdf file on newer versions using MS Windows7 & 8. Adobe no longer supports that function on earlier versions of Acad. Mine is a full commercial version of 2000i and works flawlessly today.
In the 80s & 90s text & other instructional books came with all software. Find old copies, often 100s of pages of commands & examples. Acad doesn't ever change commands, just adds new ones so even a decade old book is accurate. Find a local chapter of an AutoCad Users Group to meet others with decades of knowledge.

They do a 48-month lease of 2013 AutoCAD LT for $325. If you really need AutoCAD, there is no cheaper route that I know of. Bill.

I have decided to upgrade to Autocad. I am temporarily using an educational copy while I learn, but I need to purchase a copy. Before I go out and plunk down $4k, I need to do some research: Do I have to expect to pay that much? Where is a good place to purchase? Are there copies of one generation old programs available? I am a self teacher but I use printed texts. What is your favorite Autocad reference? Thanks everyone!
