- AUTOCAD THUMBNAILS IMPORT PLUGIN
- ================================
- The AutoCAD plugin can extract and import embedded thumbnails in AutoCAD's
- .DWG files, where available. Please note that not all DWG files include
- thumbnails, and only DWG files created with AutoCAD R13 and newer support
- thumbnails in the first place. Older DWG files will not cause problems,
- however they are of no use to this plugin. Full Delphi source code is
- included.
-
-
- INSTALLING THE PLUGIN
- =====================
- Copy the "AcadPlugin.dll" file in subfolder "Plugins" in WhereIsIt's main
- folder, for example, "C:\Program Files\WhereIsIt\Plugins". When WhereIsIt is
- run the next time, it will recognize and include the new plugin module.
-
-
- HOW TO USE IT
- =============
- No configuration options are available or necessary, just have the plugin
- active when scanning the media.
-
-
- LIMITATIONS
- ===========
- This module only handles .DWG files that have a thumbnail image embedded in
- the .DWG file. Thumbnail can be in either BMP or WMF format - both are
- supported, in case where both are present BMP thumbnail is used. WMF
- thumbnails were only supported in AutoCAD R13 and abandoned in R14 and newer.
- For more details, see the RASTERPREVIEW variable in AutoCAD.
