Best way to make aestetical presentations
Hello everyone.
I'm being asked to produce drafts embedded into aestetical presentations without any specific guidelines. All is up to me and my inspiration.
Other than the Cad drafts, it would contain a lot of photos and annotations, think about an advertisement form factor.
Outside Autocad I usually deal with such task with Word, wich I strangely grown found of, and a bit of Photoshop. So I thought I could use OLE to link good looking Word presentation into Autocad. Is it really pratical ?
Other option left is to go full Autocad with fancy hatches and gradients, but Autocad is not Powerpoint, it might be a long and tedious work.
What are your thoughts ?

I would consider using Power Point. If you are bringing linework from AutoCAD into PowerPoint (as opposed to rendered images) I recommend the following.
In AutoCAD set the visual style to 2D Wireframe
Select the geometry you want to bring to PowerPoint.
Ctrl-C to copy to the Windows clipboard
In PowerPoint choose Paste Special and then Picture (Enhanced Metafile)
After pasting the lines into PowerPoint right-click the graphic and choose Ungroup. You may need to ungroup a second time. This will enable you to change the color and line weights in PowerPoint of the imported geometry. After making your edits to the linework regroup the geometry and lock the aspect ratio so you can scale the graphic without distortion. This process will give you great line quality that can be scaled as desired. Much better than working with a raster image.
I would not bring text from AutoCAD to PowerPoint this way. Create text directly in PowerPoint.
Note, if you have a 3D solid and you would like to transfer a line drawing with hidden lines removed then in AUtoCAD set dispsilh = 1, and then give the hide command before selecting the geometry.

Thanks you answer, I ran out of time before the deadline and did everything into autocad, as OLE failed me miserably (displaying ugly stuff mostly), and I didn't had any time to dig that rabbit... ole ? (that's funny)
I keep your suggestion in mind for the next time, thanks again.
