Professional Draw comes with a utility program called TRACE, which will convert bitmapped graphics into structured drawing "clip" files. I haven't played much with TRACE. My few experiments have been a little unsatisfactory: –"Thick" lines ended up being mapped as areas, rather than lines; –Lines that I considered "smooth curves" ended up being broken into a zillion Bezier curve points. All the above is undoubtedly my own fumbling. TRACE does have many adjustable parameters (variable FIT, toggle-able FILL) that might well have made the above problems go away. –Jim
