Embedding Jpg's

[Anonymous]

I'm trying to put our logo onto a drawing sheet. When i cut and paste a jpg from a word document i get a frame around the image in the drawing sheet. Is there some way of getting rid of this. I have tried 'frame' set to '0' and then 'oleframe' to '0' and neither seem to have worked. We are trying to do it so the image is embedded not linked so we can forward the drawing template to external sources. I only dabble in autoCAD so would be glad if anyone knows how to set this up.

Does the frame print?

No it doesn't!!!!!! What an elementary mistake!

It is printing very poor quality. What is the best format to get a logo into the drawing sheet?

Quality depends on the source, source file actual size, and if you had to
scale it up in LT or not. 99% of logos are just too small and low-res to
work.

Having had some experience with this, as some clients demand their logo be included on the drawings. As previous repliers have said, the image files are horrendously low quality. The logo appears different, and or in a different location, depending on the machine it was opened on and or printed from, and / or the printer used. I have found the most effective answer is to trace or create the logo in AutoCAD. Most clients cannot discern the difference in the plotted drawing or do not believe the difference is significant enough to concern them. Sorry, i missed your original question: the best format is .wmf (windows metafile), but unfortunately most applications no longer support conversion to this format.
