importing autocad into Powerpoint

Discussion in 'AutoCAD' started by Frankie Golaub, May 4, 2004.

  1. Hi,
    Does anyone know how I can import an autocad drawing into Powerpoint.
    I have tried exporting it as a *.wmf file - but I only get the text,
    dimensions and border inserted since they are in Paperspace and the drawing
    is in model space.
    I have also tried importing the drawing as a bitmap but all I get is a black
    box image.
    Finally I tried inserting using a Print Screen image, but the inserted image
    was not very good.
    Is there a better way of doing this, if it can be done at all.

    Cheers,

    Frankie Golaub.

  2. Thanks Rick,
    I tried that, but it only copies whatever is in the current space.

  3. thanks Larry,
    I was manually copying the entities from model to PS and found it very
    tedious, but this little tip is great.

    If you really want a cool power point and have lots of dwg to include in it
    DWFit and put the dwf viewer in the power point.
