Cue the Cue Cards, Enter Stage Left

AutoCAD 2009 is shipping with a new in-the-box item referred to as "Cue Cards".  Cue Cards provide information about new features that ship with the product and they come in two different versions: hardcopy and electronic.  The hardcopy version of a Cue Card is about the same size as a 5x7 picture, while the electronic version can be viewed by opening the file acad_cue_cards.pdf in Adobe Acrobat Reader or another viewer that allows you to view PDF files. 

The file acad_cue_cards.pdf can be found in the Newfeatures folder under the Help folder of AutoCAD's install folder (<drive>:\Program Files\AutoCAD 2009\Help\newfeatures\).  Information found on a Cue Card about a feature includes the following:

• Brief description of what the feature is
• Illustrations that show the feature
• Tips
• Key features
• Related commands
• Link to related tutorials

If you want additional hardcopies of the Cue Cards, you can order additional sets by going to autodeskdocandmedia.com/.

Sincerely,
