Hi Bill,

I think I saw a recent post on how to do that, it involves pixels and matching 
coordinates.

I want to transfer a thematic map to an image file and then import the image to 
AutoCAD. The way I go about it at the moment is to have my points displayed with cross 
hairs on top of thematic layer, then save map window to image file and import the 
image to AutoCAD. I use the points on the image to align with the duplicate points in 
the AutoCAD drawing. I save the drawing and close it, then resave the thematic map, 
with the points removed, overwriting the existing image. I open the AutoCAD drawing 
and I have a clean image with just the thematic shading.

It sounds a bit cumbersome, but I can do this quite quickly, do you think writing the 
tfw would save any time?

TIA

Brian

Not automatically. You have to write the *.tfw file.
