The RATA program Mike F. is talking about will convert a .bmp to a .plt
file, but the results can be...    disappointing.  Be prepared to do a

Here is an example of such an import after massaging it:
 
 
 
All the lines tend to blend together during the etch process, but it
looks a bit ugly when looking at it on the screen :)

I seem to remember that somewhere there was a way to convert a bmp file
into something that Allegro could read in, and use on a board. Does
anyone have an idea how this is accomplished?
