Orthophotos on AutoCAD for Mac

Anonymous · ‎01-27-2018

I have got a MacBook Pro with AutoCAD 2018 and I often work on mapping orthophotos linked on the AutoCAD's draw . In this case when I zoom in the photos the speed of zooming decrease and I have to wait to see it more close. I want to ask if I can solve the problem thoughts the graphics settings or I have to choose another program , such as autocad 3D civil.

Hi Leonardo,

Try this:

Use menu Modify -> Object -> Image -> Quality to set image quality to "Draft".

Are you attaching raster image or PDF file with raster image embedded?
If you use PDF, I recommend you to convert it to raster image (JPG for example with 300 dpi resolution) and attach it instead of PDF.

Yes, JPEG is good for AutoCAD.
Only avoid using PDF with raster image embedded - it slows down AutoCAD dramatically.
