If you can create a DXF, see if you can output it to an earlier version. I
have not been able to read ACAD Lite 2004 DXFs with Allegro, but ACAD Lite also
outputs ACAD version 12 DXFs which work fine.

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.

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
