Import of Bitmap and PDF Versions of CAD Files (Feature 126)

Previously, the program allowed input only of Windows Metafile (.wmf) or Enhanced Metafile (.emf) file formats for CAD drawings to use as a template to draw your structure. Now, the program allows you to input bitmap (bmp) and portable document format (pdf) files. The program converts the pdf to a bitmap before drawing it.

Input

The CAD Import Wizard for importing of the CAD drawings has been updated to allow the following file types wmf, .emf

Metafiles (*.wmf, *.emf)

Bitmaps (*..bmp)

PDF (*.pdf)

Operation

The operation of the program is the same for bitmap files and pdf files converted to bitmaps as it is for the metafiles the program was previously restricted to.
