    You will need to insert each image into its own blank dwg. Set it up the way you wish, i.e. base point, scale, etc. and then save it as a new drawing with the name you wish. Then you will be able to use them as blocks.

    It will be necessary to use the Raster Entity Manipulation functions in Raster Design. What type of drafting are you doing? Most of what I do is geological and the bitmaps I use are from scanned maps. I am still in the process of learning how to convert them.
