Combinations of Inventors, Translators, and LT

Inventor QA expert, Bob Van der Donck, received some feedback via Autodesk Labs that Service Pack 2 of Inventor 10 is required to be able to install the Autodesk Inventor LT Technology Preview on the same machine. Bob verified that this is correct. Since we also have the Translator Add-ins available on Labs, and Autodesk Inventor 2008 is relatively new, I thought I'd clarify how installations of these applications can be mixed and matched.

Product	Relationship to Translator Add-ins	Relationship to Autodesk Inventor LT Technology Preview	Relationship to Autodesk Inventor 2008
Inventor 10	The translator add-ins are not available for Inventor 10.	Service Pack 2 is required to install LT on the same machine with Inventor 10.	Service Pack 2 is required to install Inventor 2008 on the same machine with Inventor 10.
Inventor 11	The translator add-ins are not available for Inventor 11. This applies to the original R11 as well as the DWF Extension.	LT can be installed on the same machine with Inventor 11. This applies to the original R11 as well as the DWF Extension.	Inventor 2008 can be installed on the same machine with Inventor 11. This applies to the original R11 as well as the DWF Extension.
Inventor 2008	The translator add-ins can be installed for Inventor 2008 (original or SP1). This applies to Autodesk Inventor Professional and Autodesk Inventor Suite.	LT cannot be installed on the same machine with Inventor 2008. This applies to the original release as well as SP1.	N/A
Inventor LT	The translator add-ins can be installed for the Autodesk Inventor LT Technology Preview.	N/A	Inventor 2008 cannot be installed on the same machine with Inventor LT.

Experimenting with combinations of applications to provide solutions for the Manufacturing Industry is alive in the lab.
