Is it possible to digitize lines from a bitmap onto their own layer in LT 2006? 
I have inserted a bitmap (map of a lot boundary) as an OLE object and scaled it up correctly.  Is their any way that I can digitize those lot lines to polylines?
Thank you for the help.  I am a bit of an amateur.

If I use the imageframe command variable, is there a way to get the image to scale?  I don't know how to get the drawing to scale if the border is not there.  Usually, I just measure the distance of a property line with the distance tool, divide that number by the actual distance, and then scale the drawing up.

in the LT version you cannot run the command ALIGN unfortunatly, when i want a image scaled i need to make scale reference and point so it gets the correct scale
