RasterVect

RasterVect, with this tool it is possible to conveniently convert raster images into vector formats.
With this smart and capable tool it is possible to easily transform your scanned paper drawings, charts, maps and schemes for input to CAD systems. The tool provides TWAIN and WIA support for importing images from any scanner. These converted vector formats are supported by most CAD applications like: Corel Draw, Adobe Illustrator, AutoCAD. It also supports viewing tools like zooming, scrolling and color selection. The tool supports features like: four different conversion methods, allows black and white and color vectorizing, supports orthogonal lines, inclined lines, polygons, arcs and circles recognition; supports ORTHO and SNAP modes, supports batch mode, supports all popular input and output formats, and much more.
Compatible with minimum system requirements, this application also supports viewing tools like zooming, scrolling and color selection.

RasterVect, a quick, convenient and handy tool to convert raster images into vector formats.
This economically available tool for easily converting scanned paper drawings, charts, maps and schemes for input to CAD systems.

It also supports viewing tools like zooming, scrolling and color selection. The tool supports features like; four different conversion methods, allows black and white and color vectorizing, supports orthogonal lines, inclined lines, polygons, arcs and circles recognition; supports ORTHO and SNAP modes, supports batch mode, supports all popular input and output formats, various image processing and analysis needs, mask operations, and much more.
The Win98/95/Me/NT/2000/XP compatible tool also supports easy printing and print preview functions too.

Conversions of raster images into a vector format will now be possible on the fingertips with RasterVect.
This feature rich tool has made the important task of to converting raster images into vector formats simpler. Enhanced with full-featured properties the tool is capable in; importing raster drawing by scanning original paper drawings, the tool supports the TWAIN technology to import from scanners, all the target vector formats like the DXF, WMF, EMF, EPS and AI are supported by CAD applications that support vector graphics, such as AutoCAD and Corel Draw. The other features supported are; viewing tools like zooming, scrolling and color selection; it can recognize orthogonal lines, inclined lines, arcs and circles; supports four different conversion methods, supports ORTHO and SNAP mode, form correct corners and much more.
This tool also supports vector and raster editing features, supports different raster and vector formats, and has own combined format too.

RasterVect is a vectorizer, which means a program that converts raster images to vector format. It achieves the purpose of editing uneditable scanned drawings. Original paper drawings if need to be edited, can be scanned first. The program has TWAIN support for importing these drawings from scanners. These are then converted to vector formats such as DXF, WMF, EMF etc., which are supported by most CAD applications. You have conversion methods, Solids, Lines, Outlines etc. You can manipulate color settings of Vector Lines, Vector Arcs, Background etc. The program provides you an understandable interface with toolbars such as, Paint Tools, Raster Tools, Vector Tools and Mask Tools. You can choose to run the Batch mode as well. Documents and drawings used during architectural specifications and functional specifications can now be modified and saved onto your disk. A highly effective tool to replace tracing with simple editing.

There's always been a nasty problem of finding a converter from raster to vector format. For example, you scanned a drawing but raster image format does not allow you to zoom it in without considerable loss in quality etc., and drawing the picture once again in a vector image editor is out of question. Raster-to-raster image converters exist in abundance; raster-to-vector are rare species of the image tools software category. RasterVect is one of those species.
RasterVect is a versatile application that lets you convert any raster image to a selection of vector formats, namely DXF, WMF, EMF, EPS and AI. These formats are supported by most CAD applications, such as Adobe Illustrator and AutoCAD. The program recognizes lines, circles, arcs and other geometric figures. RasterVect keeps scale of the initial drawing and has a filter that removes 'noise' from it. There is built-in TWAIN support, too.
The unregistered version, however, is crippled. Some features work on the screen only, and all you can save is but partly vectorized image. All in all, it is extremely helpful and easy to use. Try this tool today and see for yourself!
