Open AutoCAD and start a new blank drawing. ...
Scan your image and save the file as a BMP, JPG, PNG or TIF file. ...
Import the scanned image into AutoCAD. ...
Apply a new layer for tracing. ...
Trace over your scanned image. ...
Establish the scale of your drawing.

the only way is to manually draw over it? there isn't a program that will throw lines on top? youd think it would be easy enough to develop a program that can do ithis, there is a very large demand for this.

@Anonymous Are you unable to see the highlighted word LINK in the first reply that takes you to a software that does what you want?

Are you not aware that RASTER TO VECTOR software, a 30+year old industry, is out there and you can buy software to do what you want?

BTW you are basically breaking Google's ownership of those images.

Try a Google Search while you are at Google 🙂
