How to import an image?

Is there a tutorial on how to import an image containing shapes and text, and creating a sketch from it? I haven't found anything relevant online, and although this question was asked on these forums in the past, the provided answer was a link to a help page with a GUID that is now invalid (http://help.autodesk.com/view/NINVFUS/ENU/?guid=GUID-E6389C1A-CF8D-48AD-A87D-B3278AFC2EEF). Thanks.

You can Insert a Canvas thru the Insert tab at the top. You'll have to pick a plane, then image and scale it. You can right click the canvas and calibrate it with some dimensions between a couple points. This is just going to be for reference though. You won't be able to snap to any details on the image once imported. Something like that is best in AI and export as a .dxf from there then import it into Fusion.

There are some free online JPG to DXF converters but they're not very reliable.
