    Hello All,

    What do you all do for raster to vector conversion.
    I need to show my clients logo in my model, and have used Scan2CAD before
    with limited success, although I haven't used it since V4 or 5.

    Any advice is appreciated.

    TIA,
    Muggs

  3. Wintopo does not connect the lines! You will get a lot of unconnected lines.
    Pictures Converter is designed for SolidWorks and it gives you connected
    contour right into the sketch.

    Sorry for the plug.

    Well, my initial reaction is WOW!!! $595.00.

    Then I thought well if it works then OK. So I download the demo (the ReadMe
    said "very intuitive") selected the addin from SW and clicked
    Applications>Picture Converter, and I get a message "Select location
    first...".
    What the heck does that mean? Select a location how?
    NOT very intuitive.

    I'm obviosly doing something wrong.

    OK you need to select a face or an open Sketch.
