Hi,

I would like to place images in a drawing.
Can I achieve that using DXFExport?

Hello Richard,

Current version of DXF Export VCL does not allows adding raster images into the result DXF file.

This functionality will be added in future as a part of <b>CADtoDXF</b> module.

Hello Sergey,

Thank you.

I could realize almost everything I need very quickly using DXFExport and the help you gave. Adding images to the drawing would be a very fine function I would like to implement.

Would it be possible to do it "by hand"?
- Creating the DXF file using DXFExport
- Loading the file in a TMemo
- Adding what is required to insert a link to the image data and save it again

If this is possible, where can I find specification of the DXF statements I have to add?

Thanks in advance

Richard
