Saving imported images so I can send the file WITH them

Post by vkueng » Wed Jan 27, 2010 9:38 am

Version 2.2.2.0

I save my file as .dxf but the imported bmp-images are not included. The image layer is blank, when the file is opened on another Computer.

Thanks for suggestions.

Image files (bitmaps) are never stored inside a DXF file. If you share your DXF file which contains images with other people, you will have to send the image files together with the DXF file. If DXF file and image files are stored in the same folder, QCAD should find the image files when you load the DXF file.
