RAFAEL, California, April 19, 2007 - Autodesk, Inc. (NASDAQ: ADSK) today
announced that Autodesk Inventor 2008 software, the latest release of its
best-selling 3D mechanical design application, is shipping and available for

- DWG Interoperability — Using DWG TrueConnect, users can read
and write DWG files without translators while maintaining full
associativity with the 3D Inventor model and increasing reuse and
sharing of 2D manufacturing data.
- AliasStudio Interoperability — New capabilities for importing
AutoCAD surface and solid data, combined with new DWG export from
Autodesk AliasStudio software, provides a quick and reliable way to
transfer concept designs into Inventor.
- Sheet Metal Design Tools — Upgrades can improve productivity
when designing sheet metal parts and provide support for manufacturing
information, including flat pattern modifications and punch tool data.
- Ribbon Cable Design Tools — Full control over the shape and
routing of ribbon cables simplifies the design of electrical wiring and
reduces manufacturing errors by allowing all types of wiring to be
included in the digital prototype and subsequent documentation.
- Sketch Productivity Tools — An updated 2D sketch environment
helps reduce the learning curve for new designers and can improve
productivity for existing designers with clearer constraint status
information and sketch geometry formatting tools.
