    insert coordinates

    I have many tif files, with their own tfW files.
    During insert image operation, Autocad Raster Design 3 (used with AAD 3.3) inserts the tif file with a movement/error : 0.5 drawing units to north and 0.5 drawing units to east.

    I need to insert the tif file directly to the tfW coordinates.

    How can i change these settings?

    Sorry for my english (i'm not english mother-languaged)

    Thanks to everybody

    Is your UCS in the World Coordinate System?
    (Not sure if this matters) What is your SNAPBASE & SNAPANG?

    Were the TFW files created in some other coordinate system or unit of
    measure?

    snapbase is 0.000,0.000
    snapang is 0.000

    my UCS is in the world coordinates

    but the problem is different.
    my tfw is ie:
    1.000
    0.000
    0.000
    -1.000
    1000.000
    2000.000

    and raster design, after reading it, uses as correlation values :
    999.500
    1900.500

    for an image 150 px large and 100 px high.

    How could I impose to raster design to insert my image directly in 1000;2000?

    Thanks in advance

    World file co-ordinates are to centre of pixel. Could raster design be
    treating them as corner of pixel?

    Indications are your image is off by half a
    pixel dimension.

     

    The native origin for an image
    file is the center of the upper left pixel, with the positive x direction being
    to the right and the positive y direction being downward.

     

    The insertion point of a raster object
    in AutoCad is the lower left corner of the image frame (i.e. the lower left
    corner of the lower left pixel). This provides the opportunity for a half pixel
    differential during the translation.  It seems I remember encountering
    this offset between using the world file as a correlation
    source and using the image file as the correlation source for files
    with GeoTIFF header information.  Try checking the
    correlation wizard during the insertion process for the values associated
    with world and image file correlation parameters.
