Dave, That all sounds workable – thanks! Now, what about the scanners themselves. Page Scanners (8.5×11) are relatively cheap (less than $2000) but how about D and E size scanners? I do need to make sure the company realizes that everything will be a "converted" drawing which is different from the original hand drawn (or hand entered) drawing as someone else has pointed out. I assume that these conversion programs would work something like Corel System's Corel Trace program in that it reads in an image and gives a representation of the original. With that representation you can then clean up or even "better" the original drawing… I also am assuming that the conversion process works on a TIFF file format or some other graphic representation of the drawing. Is that correct? Again, I am familiar with page scanners, not larger ones… Thanks Dave, any further help is appreciated! Owen
