Import Bitmap Image To Use As Sketch Template In Solidworks
(OP)
I would like to know if it is possible to import a bitmap
scanned image into Solidworks to be used as a tracing
background template in sketch mode.
Thanks,
Dave Mills

From the help file of SW01+:
You can insert a picture onto either side of a sketch plane. Pictures are typically used as an underlay for creating 2D sketches.
Accepted file formats are .bmp, .gif, .jpg, .tif, and .wmf.
Hope that helps,

The procedure used here is that a bitmap file is converted to a DXF file by a conversion program.
Hope this helps, Good Luck!!

It read's bitmap images, trace them and save in varios vector files (like AutoCAD dxf).
Works just fine ...
