How to Convert an Image to Lines for AutoCAD
——
We categorize images (JPEG, PNG, TIF, and BMP file formats) as raster files. This is because they are made up of pixels. While images’ utility cannot be downplayed, they present a challenge when it comes to computer-aided design (CAD). CAD software such as AutoCAD cannot natively edit raster images.
In this regard, you first have to convert the image to lines for AutoCAD. You can either choose the longer, more arduous route – manually tracing the drawing’s outline using AutoCAD – or use Scan2CAD.
Scan2CAD automatically traces over the outline, thereby vectorizing the image by converting the image to lines for AutoCAD, vector lines to be exact. It also converts text-based objects to true-type text that you can edit using AutoCAD.
This tutorial covers how to convert an image to vector lines for AutoCAD.
