I am looking for a program that will run on either the IBM-PC or a Macintosh that will do raster to vector translation. What I want to be able to do is scan in an architectural drawing using a scanner hooked either to an IBM or Mac. Since the standard input is a PIC or bit mapped image, I would like to convert this to Vectors so that it can be moved into AutoCAD, or DataCAD or what ever high end package will allow importation, and great CAD ability. This is not ground in stone. If there is another, or more direct way of doing this scanning, I would love to hear about it. Any information will be graciously accepted.
