In addition to the Autodesk Inventor LT Technology Preview itself, there are 3 other Inventor-related technology preview downloads available on Autodesk Labs. Originally these previews varied in how they apply to various releases of Inventor. Now most items are compatible:
Item | Autodesk Inventor 11 (original and DWF Extension) | Autodesk Inventor 2008 (Professional and Suite) | Autodesk Inventor LT Technology Preview |
---|---|---|---|
Translator Add-ins Technology Preview |

As mentioned in Combinations of Inventors, Translators, and LT, it is possible to install the Autodesk Inventor LT Technology Preview on the same machine with Autodesk Inventor 11. For users who have machines that have both Autodesk Inventor 11 (original or DWF Extension) plus the Autodesk Inventor LT Technology Preview, if you also install the 2D to 3D Tool, then Autodesk Inventor LT technology Preview will crash when opening any file. This issue has been verified by QA expert, Bob Van der Donck, and is under investigation. To affected users who brought this to our attention, we appreciate the feedback.
