Update available for AutoCAD and AutoCAD LT

Note: The 2018.0.2 update fixes a defect that would otherwise have caused the product subscription to expire on June 1, 2017 with a pre-release product error message. Be sure to install this update before that time to avoid subscription expiration.

In AutoCAD or AutoCAD LT if you are having problems with fonts, PDF files, multiline annotative attributes, plotting, or occasional instability there is now an update to fix these issues.


In this update the following defects have been fixed:

  • Stability – Occasional crashes when ending an AutoCAD session using specific API code no longer occur.
