hi, im new on this forum, i wonder if you could help me.

my manager needs the company logo on our cad drawings. we use a small image which is in bmp format, or gif.

i have the full version of cad and i have no problem printing it with the logo image on the drawings. but when my manager opens it he cant see the image. i think its because he uses LT.

any ideas how i can convert this image to a cad block or anything that will alow them to view the company logo?

many thanks

 Insert the logo in a drawing and then save as *.Dwt.

You can try to vectorize the raster image or "redraw" it using AutoCAD entities.
But the references to raster files prepared in full AutoCAD are still valid in AutoCAD LT - just make sure you send/publish not only the DWG file but also all its external references (including raster images).
