Totally tricked…bummed!
The only reason why I stayed with pc was Autocad (It did not work well with parallels), now I had the chance and switched to MAC completely, Acad LT works fine but it was a surprise not to be able to insert PDFs and not being able of creating dynamic blocks.
If you want to print as a JPG you need to create a pdf and then turn it into JPG.
Basically is not the same as Acad LT for PC.
I just had a chat with a customer service from autodesk about upgrading my license from 2012 to 2013, it turns out that option does not exist at all ,as he said:
Here is the official statement from the Mac App Store:
Note that the AutoCAD LT 2013 App is delivered as unserialized media, and is therefore not eligible for upgrades or Autodesk Subscription and the same policy applies to acad 2012 LT
It means you have to buy the whole license every time you want to upgrade…..we as users got totally tricked here, the license policies that apply for pc don't apply for Mac, is like we purchased a BETA version of acad LT without all the features of the PC version and we are stuck with it unless you are willing to give them $900 every year until they catch up with the PC version.
