I am trying to plot my autocad 2002 images as JPEGs. When I do this though none of my curved lines connect. I have tried using pline to draw and also pedit to make them single lines but nothing works. Any suggestions?

I suggest that you plot to EPS and then open the EPS in Photoshop and save as JPEG. This will give the best results. See the tutorial I pointed you in the direction of last time you asked this question.

I did check out that tuorial and tried to do the eps. the problem with eps format is that there is no back ground to color. I am trying to create presentations. when I drop in a template and merge visible, it just does not work.

Yes, you will get a transparent background to the image when you open an EPS file. All you need to do is create a new layer, drag it behind the EPS layer and flood fill in whatever colour you like. You'll then have your AutoCAD drawing on one layer and your background on another so you can really have some fun!
