WORKING WITH AUTOCAD

AutoCAD for Windows can support the Intuos tablet as a System Pointing Device or as a Wintab

Compatible Digitizer. By default, AutoCAD is conﬁgured to use Intuos as a System Pointing Device. If you

will be using Intuos with tablet menus or to digitize drawings to proper scale, you will need to follow the

procedures below.

1. Start AutoCAD. From the DRAWING EDITOR, open the TOOLS menu and select OPTIONS.

2. From the O

PTIONS window, select the SYSTEM tab.

3. Under C
