    I would like to put an image of the Fl Keys area on my drawing and don't know how to do it. I'm running 2004 LT.

    Do you mean a jpg file (or any other raster file)? If so then there an add-on to allow image commands in LT. There is a free version for LT 2000-2002 but I don't think it workds for LT-2004. The not-free version for LT-2004 is about $75 but has a 30 day demo. With be worth a look.

    Free version

    Not free version

    Good luck

    You can also copy/paste from another application, i.e. open the image in Paint, select all, copy, paste into AutoCAD.

    Ok, I got the pic in my drawing, thanks! But now how do I get it to print. When I plotted my drawing everything but the jpeg printed. I just used paint and cut and pasted the pic in. I'll try the free trial version suggested as well and see if that works.
