About Raster Images in Design

Raster images are simply image files placed onto a Design drawing. Image files can be a PDF, JPG, PNG, GIF, BITMAP, with JPG’s being the best option. This option can be used in several different ways:

Users can scan printed surveys (lot plans) and insert the file containing the scanned image into their drawing, then use the image as a guide to draw building and property lines

Others polish the finished drawing by adding a company logo or images of plants that will become part of the landscape.
