There are software products that will convert raster to vector images,
or bitmap
to vector. DXF by choice so you can import to Allegro.

You might also ask a photoplot vendor if they can convert it for you.
I have had this done in the past and it only cost me $150.00 per logo.

Subject: [PCB_FORUM] importing dxf in allegro


Hi everyone,
We have to use a weee symbol on our board and only have this in a bmp file
format.
I created a dxf using wintopo and I can open the dxf created with voloview
express but when I try to import it in allegro I have this message: 
ERROR: Invalid program arguments.
Terminating program.
I'm using allegro performance 15.2
Any idea how to import correctly a bmp file in allegro?
Thanks

Samuel
