convert dwg to bmp

[Anonymous]

I want to convert dwg to bmp file. Is it possible to create a bmp for the LIMITS boundary? 

if possible,  I can use in objectARX 2013,vs2010. Is anyone aware of such a program?

 thanks in advance.

Hi Sivasankari,

You can try using AccoreConsole for this.

In the sample project in the following blog post, it generates a image of the selected drawing which is then displayed inside an image control.

But there are know limitations in using AccoreConsole - It is unsupported, does not plot OLE images and not all AutoCAD commands are recognised.

The other way would be to use the plot or publish API to create a PNG from the drawing.

You can find code samples on using the plot and publish API by searching online or in Through the interface, The Swamp, AutoCAD Devblog.
