Who this book is for

If you’re a designer using Autodesk Fusion daily and would like to learn how to 3D print your designs, or if you’re interested in creating functional yet lightweight prints, this book is for you. Intermediate-level users of Fusion will benefit from having this book as a reference for design for additive manufacturing (DFAM) and print preparation.

Ideally, you need a rudimentary understanding of the design capabilities of Fusion before you start reading this book. Being able to create basic designs and knowing how to open existing CAD or mesh files with Fusion will allow you to get the most out of this book.
