how to import image into sketcher, to create offset afterwards

hello proe gurus..

I need to import an image into the sketcher in order to use it as a template to create the logo of a company.

I will later on use the sketched logo to create an offset surface.

But my main question is...how to import the image (I have available as jpeg of tiff) into the sketcher without any distortions?

The height to width relation should be maintained. I will later reduce the size of the image to fit it to the part.

thank you

Hi Alvaro,

There is a similar topic on the exploder about inserting a JPEG into Pro-E (http://portal.ptcuser.org/p/fo/st/thread=43413 and http://www.mcadcentral.com/proe/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=32409&KW=trace+sketch). You can scale the image using the Trace sketch tool in ISDX.

If you do not have ISDX, here is a link to a video showing a work around method (http://santangelo-eng.com/proe_tuts/trace_sketch.swf). I typically use the Style tool in ISDX for tracing sketches (unless I am using SolidWorks), and If you are not able to get it to work, I can take a look as I also am using Pro-E WF 3.0 (including ISDX).
