I have images in my AutoCAD drawing as linked images(Pasted directly). These drawing, while sharing, required to zip dwg file along with these pictures, other wise if I share only dwg file, it doesnt show these attached images. I need to place them as Paintbrush pictures or Picture(metafile) without again doing paste special command. Is there any way like AutoCAD command or LISP to do it?

Hi,
Sorry, there is no inbuilt command in AutoCAD to bind the xref image into the drawing. The only way is to manually open the image in paint copy it and paste it into the drawing using paste special command.
You can post in question in the customization forum and see if they can help you out with some lisp. Here is the link to the customization forum:https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/visual-lisp-autolisp-and-general/bd-p/130

Then you'll need to do it from another graphics program: there is no magical built-in auto-bind option for images in AutoCAD.
Here is Autodesk explaining the process https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/autocad/troubleshooting/caas/simplecontent/content/binding-im...

You can take the copy from paint method a step further, and create a block containing the image. Example attached. Not a "bind" but essentially does the same thing. As long as you don't delete and purge the block from the dwg file, it is there...(at least it has been for me) a really large image will result in a really large file, but if that isn't an issue for you.....see attached example dwg (I don't remember where I found this trick on the internet, but someone else thought it up, not me)

This falls under "just because you can don't mean you should" as your client will not have plotting or other problems with your linked images. However all forms of OLE introduce many problems (documented on these forums) and it's simply not worth it for the convenience of distributing one file.
