For accomplishing paper to CAD conversion process AutoCAD users are required to open AutoCAD at the first place. Once AutoCAD is opened by users they should then go to ‘File menu’ and select ‘New’ for starting a fresh drawing. After this users are required to scan the drawings provided by clients and save the file in appropriate file format. The various formats into which a scanned file can be saved include JPG and PNG etc. These file formats are considered as ‘AutoCAD-compatible formats.’ For importing scanned file that is created by users into AutoCAD they should go to File Menu and select ‘Import.’ After this users are required to locate the folder wherein the file is saved and then select it from there. Before clicking ‘OK’ users are required to make some adjustments in image scale as well as location within the Specify on Screen box. After clicking ‘OK’ users can easily move the scanned image and place it properly in the screen. Now users are required to apply a fresh layer so that the newly imported image can be successfully traced. Layer can be selected by users simply by going to home menu. For providing an appropriate name to the layer users are required to click ‘New’ from the window. For adding the layer users are required to click ‘OK.’ Now users can conveniently trace the drawing and make appropriate modifications such as they can use ‘Delete button’ if they want to eliminate errors from it. Intersecting lines can also be trimmed by users with the assistance of trim tool. After this users are required to set a scale for the drawing. So for establishing scale, users are required to approach ‘Tools menu’ and select ‘Measure’ icon from there. Use measurement tool for tracing the measurement of the lines in the drawing. After measuring the elements set a scale for them.
