I wonder if there is a way to put a jpeg in the background to use as a template to draw after, ex if I have picture of a logo or something, and then put the picture as a background image in autocad and then I can just draw lines and curves above it. Or a simple way to converte the pic to dxf that works in autocad, and use that. |

| Insert menu, insert raster image. You can get a raster to vector converter, but imo, tracing is much better. Search for Wintopo or Inkscape for converters.
