We would like to remind our users that ProjectMatrix will be discontinuing support for all AutoDesk products prior to 2007 versions as of September 1st 2010. Why are we doing this? There are several reasons we have to do this. First, AutoDesk has already discontinued support on their own products from 2007 and prior. They will be dropping support for 2008 shortly. Secondly, in order for ProjectMatrix to prepare for the new 64-bit support, we had to discontinue the use of Sylads for compressing the symbol libraries for distribution. The new PSM format was designed with 2007 and higher, though in some cases the PSM format does work for previous versions. Lastly, ProjectMatrix wants to focus our programming on maintenance and enhancements for the latest versions of AutoCAD from 2007-2011 and future releases.
We have always supported the latest two “R” versions of AutoDesk products.
What is an “R” version?
AutoCAD R16 = 2004, 2005, and 2006
AutoCAD R17 = 2007, 2008, and 2009
AutoCAD R18 = 2010 and 2011
Should AutoDesk follow the same patterns, we will continue support for 2007-2009 until AutoCAD releases 2013 in R19.
