    Question Insert raster image

    When I insert a jpeg file (engineering drawing) into Autocad Lt 2006 - I get a solid white thumbnail image of the file with the file name in black text. I want to trace over the drawing.

    Thanks or any help

    Russ, I am going to move this from the Raster Design Forum, to this one, as I believe it will be better served here. Thank you.

    What proceduare are you using? You say, Insert, and I assume using 'Insert > Raster Image' from the pull-down menu?

    I don't know if anything in this this thread will help, just a discussion of challenges inserting image into LT... ratio not correct.

    Default Re: Insert raster image

    I copy and paste the image into AutoCAD LT 20006. When I right click properties on the image in acad LT it says it's a OLE object and does not show up in the image manager?

    With LT can you insert raster images? as with Autocad 2006

    From what I have read , LT does not have an image manager to insert images. How you are inserting the images, those images would then be considered an OLE object.
    If you have a technical question, please find the appropriate forum and ask it there.
    You will get a quicker response from your fellow AUGI members than if you sent it to me via a PM or email.

    Thanks Richard, Sorry, Russ, I do support a couple of LT users here, but don't have it on my pc to test out, so sorry for any misinformation/goofy questions.

    Not a problem. I don't have any access to LT. I'm just going off what I figure out with AUGI help.

    Russ.
    If you have any access to a copy of FULL acad, use that to attach the image file using the image manager. Once attached, it can be manipulated in LT.
