insert jpeg into drawing

insert jpeg into drawing

(OP)
Does anyone know how to insert a jpeg image into a drawing.  I have pictures I want to add into my drawing can you do that?

RE: insert jpeg into drawing

A very easy way to insert a JPEG is to open the file in MS paint or a similar program. Select the area (or select all) and copy to your clipboard.

Then, in your drawing, simply 'Edit' -> 'Paste' to add it in. You can drag the image or re-size it as you wish.

Thanks,

In other words it must be converted to a .BMP (bitmap) file format

RE: insert jpeg into drawing

Insert\Object\From file - If you get an icon its because the file is not associated to an application that is recognized by Windows... if you don't believe me check the knowledge base... its been a long time issue.
