JPG. In Dwg.

           In attaching pictures on to a dwg.,  is  easy, the thing sending it to somebody else where it gets complicated. 

How do I send a DWG. with photo  without getting lost in the transition in PDF format it retains the photo.....do I send it in PDF format or something else. 

 

People need to work on the dwg. afterwards,  in PDF can't do that.

Images are not embedded in the DWG file unless you insert them as OLE objects. This creates other problems however.

When you send the DWG, use eTransmit to package up the DWG and the JPG into a ZIP file and your recipient will do just fine.
