Alright, here is the story. I am looking to import .wmf files into autocad. When I do the import command in autocad, it replies to me with the message: "No translatable objects." If any one has a helpful tip for me I would love to hear it. This can be a great time saving tool if it is even possible to do. Thanks for all your help

Well, I just tried it (taking WMF and inserting into AutoCad). It seems to work just fine, using a .wmf generated by Acad, and inserting into either paperspace or model space. I'm using AutoCad 2004...

What generated your source .wmf file?

 
Thanks for the quick reply, I am using Autocad Lt. I wonder if that is the problem? I will try Autocad full version and see if that works.
 
Yes it is a problem with LT..It does not be default handle images like the full version..Another reason Im sure to make people want/need to upgrade to the full version
