931465
a few ways.\nyou could just redraw it, it doesnt need to be scanned for that.\n\nyou could insert it as an image in your dwg and trace over everything (digitize), or just leave it like that and draw new entities over the top of it. if you do this I recommend making it a 2bit tiff file, that way it takes on properties like color from autocad.\n\nif you have the means to make a pdf out of your image you could use a pdf to dxf conversion software package. like \nhttp://www.aidecad.com/\nto create a dxf of it and insert in your dwg. now the dxf's are made up of all lines, even the text, so file sizes can get kinda big, but you can insert it in your dwg as a block and be able to dimension it and snap to endpoints etc...\n\nthere may be other ways but one of these is how I would do it.\ngood luck

just find the drwan.ocx that you "miss". Find in the internet and put it in the directory. Go to component and select the OCX object ... done...\n\n\nItu je bang... :D

use the flat bed feature if your scanner has that.  Set the scanner for high resolution. Save as a .jpg file

the units in the AutoCAD file and the 3dsMax file should be the same , in 3dsMAX open customize->units setup then chose"system units setup", be sure it's the same units used in the AutoCAD file,\nand also in the "Import file dialouge"in max,  mark the "rescale" button and chose the incoming drawing units\nanother thing to be considered affecting the accuracy of the import process is " how far is the drawing far from the Autocad file's origin, if it's so far, consider moving ALL the objects around the origin , so the origin will be in the center of the Objects, refer to Max's help file, autocad import section............

BTM files: these don't appear to be Graphic Files but rather Batch Files. I could be wrong since rarely but sometimes file extensions are used in more than one type of application. I assume that you mean BMP files. If not, please see my note at the bottom about BTM files.\n\nYou need to use a graphics program to convert your Graphic files to BMP or JPG files that most Embroidery Digitizing Programs can understand. Plus, you will need to have very clean clipart if you are looking for autodigitizing capabilities. So, you will need to use a Graphics program to clean up your clipart, such as MS Paint. If budget allows, Corel Draw or Corel PaintShop are worth looking into. If you will manually digitize, you won't need to have as clean clipart as if you autodigitize.\n\nSome embroidery packages to look at ($500 plus) are VSM Group autodigitizng, their VP3 packages (Husqvarna & Pfaff versions), Bernina has Bernina Plus ver 4 (has an autodigitizer in the Plus version), Janome has packages, Brother has packages available to name a few. Other packages are Origins, Corel, Generations that are all high end but suited for home use. Most packages I've mentioned will export to both HUS and PES formats and others as well.\n\nFor a better price, without autodigitizng features, you can get a 30 day trial version of Embird http://www.embird.com/ that has a digitizing module that you can also try for 30 days. Great Notions has an autodiigitizng program that is less than the $500, around $200 or so, that will autodigitize clean clipart. It is called Click n Stitch, it probably doesn't allow one to do any manual editing so it is for home use only. \n\nIf you plan to be selling designs, you want to go with the higher end softwares that has manuall digitizing as well as autodigitiizng,so that you can you can manually digitize & fix the auto-digitized designs. Having the option to do Manual digitizing is very important if you plan to be selling your designs. Some packages will link to your embroidery machine so that you can quickly test your designs. Usually they are packages from the same company that makes your machine.\n\nPlease feal free to ask me other questions and I'll try to answer them for you. \n\nAre you asking about BMP files? I am not familiar with BTM files. You need to use a graphics program to convert your Graphic files to ones that Embroidery Digitizing Programs can understand, usually most digitizing programs will work with BMP file some also with JPG and a few with WMFs & some with other formats.\n\nYou will need to have very clean clipart if you are looking for autodigitizing capabilities. If you will manually digitize, you won't need to have as clean clipart as if you autodigitize.\n\nThere are many packages that are available for home use as well as professional use, usually they are expensive but not as expensive as ones for Commercial machines.\n\nSome brands to look at ($500 plus) are VSM Group autodigitizng, their VP3 packages (Husqvarna & Pfaff versions), Bernina has Bernina Plus ver 4 (has an autodigitizer in the Plus version), Janome has packages, Brother has packages available to name a few. You will digitize the artwoork and save it in the Embroidery Digitizing Native format and you will then be able to convert that Native Format to one that your home machine can read. Most packages I've mentioned will export to both HUS and PES formats and others as well.

GPH? You can't unless you have some sort of a plug-in installed into Photoshop. To be honest w/you I never even heard of this format, and I'm a designer. This may be a program specific format!?

ACDSee is good for bulk conversions if you want to convert multiple files at once. I know Paint Shop Pro used to do bulk conversions too but I haven't seen recent versions. If it doesn't it will at least let you save as a different file type.
