With rapidly increasing technologies more and more companies are searching for new ways to gain a lead in the market, raster to vector (R2V) conversion is becoming a standard of expectation.
Raster to Vector conversion also known as R2V caters to the diversified fields ranging from commercial to industrial. More than 60 countries use R2V for mapping and GIS data conversion applications. Architectural, engineering, construction, electrical and house plans are all regulars of the raster to vector conversion. The raster to vector conversion can be applied to convert data or image into vector format. The advantages of raster to vector (R2V) conversion include:
1. A vector image has no jaggedness, no loss in detail and can be printed at any resolution or any size.
2. This vector image can be scaled up or down without any loss in quality.
3. Also the archive of the vector artwork can be used for manuals, brochures, newspapers and a host of other areas.
Raster to vector conversionsenables you to convert technical drawings, maps logos and any other graphics from raster to vector formats, for easy archiving and instant access. Raster to vector (R2V) procedure can be used to process charts, drawings, maps, schemes and other similar images.
Applications:
1. Raster to vector conversion of Technical Drawings (AEC)
2. Raster to vector conversion of House plans
3. Raster to vector conversion of GIS (CAD)
4. Raster to vector conversion of Blueprints
5. Raster to vector conversion of Logos
6. Vectorization for website applications
7. Vectorization for Graphic Design purposes
One of the many ways to achieve the raster to vector conversion can be recreating the vectorized output using AutoCAD (DWG, DXF), MicroStation (DGN), Adobe Illustrator (AI), CorelDraw (CDR), VectorWorks, etc.

AutoCAD works just fine under on Mac hardware. I have AutoCAD 2009 installed on the Boot Camp partition of my Macbook Pro, and it runs like a dream…I don't foresee you having any problems.
However, keep in mind that Autodesk doesn't "officially" support AutoCAD running on any Macintosh platform. That being said, it will run on either Parallels or Boot Camp, whatever your choice. (Assuming that you're using a Mac with an Intel processor).
Yes. Theoretically, you can take any older version to 2009 and open it there. Just make sure that you only go from old to new, and not visa versa. If you take drawings you made in 2009 to your school computer and try to open them in 2004, it won't work.
To save a 2009 file to 2004 format, just go to save as. Under the drawing name, there is an option in which you can select different versions and formats. Usually its either .dwg, .dwt, and .dxf for years 2007, 2004 and 2000. You'll probably want to stick with the .dwg format, but with year 2004.
Follow the following steps:
OS (enter)
check the box End point ( You can check all if you want.This will help as u advance in Autocad;-) )
Press OK
Now activate line command by
L (enter)
go near the first corner..a small yellow icon will appear saying end point..just click immediately.Then go near the other corner..end point will light up again..just click. Then Enter to complete your line.
(If the end point yellow light does not appear then press F3)
you need a converter program for this wich you can find it here:

you can search free versions here: http://www.4shared.com
good luck!
yeah, macs suck. otherwise why would you be loading windows on it. lol
Yes Autocad has such feature.I can just give u headlines at this time.
U need to learn to make BLOCKS with attributes…( Attribute is a data linked to that block like Part no., price etc. )
Then u need to learn ways of Attribute extraction. yes they can be extracted to Excel format.
So the key words for you to look in help are BLOCK with Attributes, Attribute Extraction. You can do them.
Good Luck!
Auto Cad is not a career field. It is a tool used by engineers to do their work. It is a skill that should be part of your resume. Getting certification in Auto Cad will provide evidence to future employers that you are adept in using this tool.
You should do a search for "CAD freelancer" or just "freelancer" Remember that you'll be competing against the world. There is no "Only USA" web site. One of the advantage of being in the US is, that if a project recruiter wants to sue someone in India for a breech of contract, good luck. As a citizen/resident of the US there are laws that help to provide some relief/remedy to parties that believe they have been wronged. Make sure that when you bid, you bring up this point. It helps to even the playing field.
Good luck.
