AutoCAD 2013 :: Raster Images Don't Display
Sep 2, 2013
My boss has been having problems with some drawings containing Raster Images, they display on every workstation besides his.
The saved path is correct but the images all list 'Unreferenced' as their status, I've tried reloading them and even detaching before reinserting them but to no avail. He is running Autocad 2013 (SP2 installed).
Also, he's had this problem for awhile now but it's happening on his brand new pc too, which suggests a possible network problem? He's on the same wireless network as half of our office but he's the only one experiencing this issue.

Today, out of the blue, Illustrator stopped displaying any raster images. The file opens, but I just get a blank artboard. The title bar at the top of the page shows the preview but it doesn't display on the page. It doesn't seem to matter if I import the file or if I just open the file straight into Illustrator. I've tried PSD, JPEG, TIFF, and PNG without success. This morning I was redrawing old logos for a client, and this afternoon I can't open anything that is rasterized.

How many raster images can I add to an AutoCAD drawing?
Is there a limit? If so what is this limit and how can I change it?

I just loaded 2014 onto a new computer and poof every custom toolbar has a question mark. Yet the image displays on the preview in the cui.
All of my button images are in a folder on my C: drive and that path is in the support file search path.
I went to one of the buttons and click on the small and large image and browsed to the folder with the BMP files and clicked it for both small and large.. And when I clicked 'ok' everything started to display correctly.

I use image insert to attach aerial photographs. I would like to use the FDO raster connection, but I keep having a problem with the raster image losing it's display order. I use "display order" in the display manager and move the raster to the bottom, but for some reason it keeps popping above the line work and I have to keep sending it to the back.
I put images in drawings quite frequently as they change from year to year and we monitor a large number of projects yearly. Is image insert still the quickest solution or is there a way to ensure the image will retain it's display order when I do a data connect?

I'm redoing some old projects in Revit, and I'm using a background image to vastly facilitate the process as the projects are almost perfectly drawn, I'd like however, to use a background image as reference and keep the underlay (e.g.: show the bg image for level 2 and over it show the level 1 underlay) but I couldn't find a way to do that.

I normally am a Civil 3D person. Learning something new as the company I work for has been tasked with creating some GIS maps for a client. Still have only a couple of months experience with Map 3D. The current task at hand is creating a map of our client's district boundary to replace an old exhibit hanging in client's office. I used mapiinsert to insert 64 MrSID raster images, then data connected some SDF file for the boundary, major thoroughfares, and tributaries. The overall aerial imagery, after clipping, is about 11 miles by 17.25 miles. I am planning to plot this on a 48" x 76" sheet of paper at a 1200 scale.
The problem is that I get about 1/8" of an aerial image and 75-3/4" of blank paper when I try to plot. I have tried to reduce the raster image quality and bumped up the Rasterpercent and Rasterthreshold system variables to their maximum settings with no improvement. Images show when I do a preview, but do not plot out. I also tried creating a PDF but I get the same result with a thin strip of aerial when I do that. I use Bluebeam for PDF.

Yes, I know the HP is only a 44" plotter, but I am plotting to fit a 36" roll so that we can view a check plot before we forward the file to our reprographics company for full size plots. I have also tried different settings on the plotter but nothing I have tried has had any impact.

I just loaded AutoCAD 2013.... when I printed out a drawing which included a picture .bmp file format, only the picture comes out completely black. It's looks like the raster images printed were reversed. It appear as a negative image.

Heard complaints about how XREF's with raster images take forever to load and unload? Any time you select the XREF in the Xref Manager the images process, whether they are turned on or off. When did this behavior start?

We're having problems with exporting/printing raster images, mostly earial-images.
This raster images aren't showing up, but the problem happens at random and on different pc's/platforms.
We are running AutoCAD 2011 LT on windows XP and windows 7 x64 platforms.

I imported the .dwg file from ArchiCAD 12 to my AutoCAD 2008.
The problem is that, there are some dots (Autocad recognizes it as "raster image") all over the drawing. And I need to delete them manually each one of them.
Is there way I could do this automatically? Is there a way to select all the "raster images" at once, and then delete them?

In the old days (15years ago) we scanned a lot of files to DXB, and simply imported the image into the .DWG as small objects. (I believe they were treated as polyline segments). The lines from the original scan became a series of small polyline segments (not joined) but the scanned image plotted as good as the original, and even better, the objects could be erased and a "hybrid" drawing created without xrefs or "embedded" raster files. You could manipulate the scanned objects with normal autocad commands, and they existed on Layer 7.
Now, I am forced to Import a TIFF and "embed" the object (if I want it to be a permanent part of the drawing), and edit it with seperate programs like Raster Design.
QUESTION: How to convert a "embedded raster image" into a DXB image?
The scanner used to do the work for me and save the image as DXB. It was not a "vectorization program", but the raster lines became small (not joined) polyline segments in the process.
I don't want to "vectorize" with a seperate program, because then it just "traces" with a zero-width polyline.
The old scanner used to save to DXB, now I don't even see that as an option.
Any words of wisdom about creating a "scan" that can become "objects" (even small dots) INSIDE the DWG file, instead of a "Raster Image" that has to be xref'ed or "embedded", and will not even plot to a DXB or HPGL format?
I have mostly TIFF files that I would like to "convert" to DXB, and not have to re-scan them. I hate that the Raster file is treated as a seperate xref or "embedded" Raster Image.
I KNOW we used to scan directly to DXB and bring in the objects with the DXBIN command!

We frequently create PDF files using the DWGtoPDF.pc3 . We have a lot of drawings with a raster background image. In version 2010 I could create a PDF and the raster image would show up. We recently upgraded to Map 3D 2012 and although the raster shows up in the preview, it does NOT get plotted to the PDF.

I have a drawing that refuses to plot the raster image when i plot to a PDF. It will plot the raster when I send it to the plotter. The raster is visible in the print preview. I've tried using the Adobe PDF driver and the DWG to PDF.pc3.
All I get is the line work.
Plot tranparency is off. Image is at Brightness 50, Contrast 50, Fade 0.

Here's the Code I have so far:
I want to iterate through the Image Dictionary and Connect into the Raster ImageDef Properties.
I want to be able to modify and fix missing Raster Images.
How to get this code sorted out.
For Each myObjID As ObjectId In myModelSpace
Dim myEnt As Entity = myObjID.GetObject(OpenMode.ForRead)
If TypeOf myEnt Is Image Then Dim myRasterImg As RasterImage
Dim myRasterImgDef As RasterImageDef 'Open The Dictionary
Dim ImgDict As ObjectId = RasterImageDef.GetImageDictionary(DatabaseIn)
For Each dictEntry In ImgDict NextEnd If

I am facing the following problem in Autocad 2012:
I have set all the drawings I want to print in the Sheet Set Manager and I publish everything to plotter for unattended plotting. However, when publishing the same drawings to PDF using the SSM, all raster images do no print. If I open each drawing and plot the same layout on its own, everything prints just fine. So I think there is something wrong when publishing through the SSM.
The funny thing is that before using Autocad 2012 I was using version 2010 and everything worked as expected, the raster images were printed no matter where I was printing from.

I have problems printing successfully the raster embedded images within a dwg file using the xerox 6279 accxes controller plotter. I use the 6279 hpgl/2 v 15.0.5 driver but when the file is longer than 1 meter long i lose the embedded images or are misplaced anywere in the drawing. I have also the same problem using other similar files with embedded ratser images

I am having some problem with plotting Raster image.
From time to time I need to use raster image as a background such as the example in the attachment. Here you can see that the raster image is only plotting half of the image.

I am working on a project that requires a number of raster images to be compiled in a base file and then x-ref'ed into titleblock sheets. The base file is not giving me any problems but the files it is x-ref'ed into keep giving me fatal errors and shutting down AutoCAD. I am working in 2012 LT. I was able to find a HotFix for this problem for 2008 but have not been able to find a fix for my version.

When I Print from AutoCAD 2000i (Windows XP, 2GHz, 2GB Ram) to a Canon IP6000 and an HP9800
I get evenly spaced white stripes in raster images (inserted via insert or ole) Vector lines and text appear just fine on top of the image. I've tried changing the spooler location and image quality to no avail. I have attached a scan of the output I am getting.

Insert a Raster Image or an OLE object (like a selection from a XLS worksheet).
Explode the Raster Image/OLE object.
=> the Raster Image/OLE dissapears and the frame remains (LINE objects).
I think that these types of entities should not allow exploding.

I have a set of four images I am referencing into a drawing through the data connect feature found in Planning and analysis that overlap. I am running Civil 3D 2013. I would like to be able to clip the images as well as turn off the transparency but I can't seem to figure out how. If you select the images cadd thinks it is an image referenced outside of Data connect, but the clipping tool doesn't work, and it doesn't even matter if you de-select print transparency in the page setup, it still prints transparent. Is there another set of commands or tools that I am not aware of that allows you to edit an image brought in through the data connect?

How do I accurately set the scale on a raster underlay based on 2 (or more) points where I know the distance between them?
In fact I would like to do this on 2 axes separately so that it stretches.
I am used to georeferenceing like this and getting raster underlays the right shape for the coordinate system I am using. How I can do this in AutoCAD, which used a very simple coordinate system.

Following instructions from Autodesk as to how to install the Raster driver for image exports I installed "plotters" for JPEG, TIFF, BMP and PNG. None of them work. When I try to one of them, the result is a blank file about 39KB in size.
