documentation products (Autodesk Inventor Family of Products, Autodesk Revit Family of Products and
Autodesk Civil 3D), which accounted for 22% of our net revenues in fiscal 2007. In addition to software
products, the Design Solutions Segment offers a range of services including consulting, support and
training.
During fiscal 2007, the Design Solutions Segment consisted of a general design platform division and
industry-specific business divisions. These were:
Platform Technology Division and Other, which includes revenue from Autodesk Collaboration
Services and Autodesk Consulting
Manufacturing Solutions Division
Building Solutions Division
Infrastructure Solutions Division
Beginning in fiscal 2008, we reorganized our Design Solutions Segment business divisions to be
better aligned with our customers. The newly formed divisions are:
Platform Solutions and Emerging Business Division and Other, which includes AutoCAD, AutoCAD
LT, Geospatial and other emerging businesses
Architecture, Engineering and Construction Division, which includes the old Building Solutions
Division, our civil design solutions, as well as our collaborative project management tools Buzzsaw
and Constructware, and
Manufacturing Solutions Division, which was not impacted by the reorganization.
Because the reorganization was not effective until the beginning of fiscal 2008, we will present
divisional information in this Form 10-K as it was organized during fiscal 2007.
The Media and Entertainment Segment derives revenues from the sale of products to post-production
facilities, broadcasters and creative professionals for a variety of applications, including feature films,
television programs, commercials, music and corporate videos, interactive game production, design
visualization, web design and interactive web streaming. The Media and Entertainment Segment is
comprised of two business lines: Animation, including visualization, and Advanced Systems. Our animation
products provide advanced tools for 3D modeling, animation, rendering solutions, and design visualization
and visual effects production. Our Advanced Systems products provide color grading, editing, finishing
and visual effects, compositing, media mastering and encoding technology, and increase the productivity
of creative professionals. Key markets served by the Media and Entertainment Segment include PC
animation, advertising, film, television and console game development, and design visualization.
