I am using acad 2002 and draw 3d exhibits (extruding shapes). I was asked to create a title block with a graphic in it. I have had every type of file in the drawing (jpg, tiff, corel, metalfile, referenced and not referenced), but whenever i go to plot and have my hide lines box checked the graphic becomes hidden and not viewable. I have inserted another jpg that was just a photo and the same thing happened. I have now spent 6 hours on something that is easily done if only I new how? help...

Are you plotting from model space or from paper space?

paper space, I found some info last night on acad website. You create a view port the size of the logo and make sure IMAGEFRAME is turned off for that view port and then in the properties box for that same view port make sure HIDEPLOT says off or no. Then freeze the logo in any other view ports and for now it seems to be working. My new problem is finding a font that will plot correctly to a pdf (clear)
