Hello All,
I have a question regarding ACAD 2000.
We have a waterjet machine and it recognizes only .dxf files. I want to scan our company logo and open it in ACAD2000 and then save the file as dxf. I tried that but was unsuccessful. Any ideas???
Anyone know of any plugins for ACAD etc?

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks
Jogesh

Corel Draw 10 has raster to vector converstion with it. Othervise,
1. Scan it in and a bmp, or simillar
2. Trace over it with autocad, in a different layer.
3. Turn the layers offf than have the tracing on.
4. Erase the bmp.

Hard and Long but it works, I just did this with som e crane drawings.

GoodLuck, Rich
