scanning
vectorising
After your drawings have been scanned or if you have raster files that need converting, Digiscans can vectorize them for you allowing you to view and edit in a CAD application.
raster images
When an image is scanned the information collected is in raster format; TIFF. This means that they are a series of dots or pixels on the screen and can be viewed on any computer without the need for specialist software.
vector images
To use a scanned image in a CAD application for editing the raster file must be converted into vector format using specialist software.
We would like to stress that the quality of the original will produce the same standard of vector file. Poor quality originals can be cleaned and improved but they do not always produce good results. In these cases Digiscans would suggest that the file is used as a base layer and then drawn over with new lines. Once completed this R2V (Raster to Vector) layer can be removed.
formats
Input / Output formats: .tiff, .pdf, .gif, .dwg, .dxf, .dwf, .twc, .psd, .bmp
