Binding a Raster Image in AutoCAD...

Hi again... After a really quiet time, I am back... I being ask lately about How to Bind a Raster Image in AutoCAD, as you probably already know raster images can only be referenced into AutoCAD drawings. If you send the drawing to someone else, you must send the image file also, if you will end up with a broken reference.
One way to get it done is inserting the image as an OLE object.
Go to the Insert Tab and look for OLE Object or just type INSERTOBJ on the command line.
Choose "Create New", then choose "Paintbrush Picture".
Next, Windows Paintbrush should open up.
In Paintbrush, choose the from the ribbons -> Paste, then Paste from...
Select your existing image file (JPG, BMP, PNG, TIF, etc.)
Close Paint and save your AutoCAD drawing...
Hope this will give you some ideas and help you somehow...
