embossing an Image

embossing an Image

(OP)
This is driving me crazy and I know its an elementary screw up on my part somewhere.

I have a .jpg that I need to emboss  on a sheetmetal part.

when I insert image into the sketch it doesnt show up.  just the file name in a square the size of the image.  

What the heck am i doing wrong here?

Thank you,

RE: embossing an Image

Nate,

I'm having the same problem. I did find out that the image has to be a gif file but even then, when I try to insert a gif file it shows the actual image until in place it on the part.  At that time it reverts to just the file name.  Have you figured out the problem?

RE: embossing an Image

Nate,

I think I figured it out.  You can only insert a BMP file.  You can convert a jpg file to a bmp file with MS Paint.
