Inserting TIFF files into AutoCAD Lite 2

[copperandme]

I have tried to copy and paste a TIFF file into CADD; this does not produce the image on the TIFF file, just a box marked TIFF. Does anyone know an easy way to do this and what supporting programs do i need for this to work?

AutoCAD doesn't like .tiff or .jpeg files - even though they are pickable options when creating an OLE object. You can open that .tiff file using Microsoft Picture & Fax Viewer, and then save it as a .bmp file. The .bmp file will work just fine as a OLE object into AutoCAD.

Hi,

why doesn`t ACADlt like images? Ok, there's no insert command, but You can work with inserted images.
And You can use a *.dwt-file:
