Insert an AutoCAD drawing into a Word document
Rather than converting your AutoCAD drawings into BMP files to insert in a Word document, wouldn't you like to simply insert the AutoCAD drawing itself? Well it's easier than you might think. Follow these steps:
1. Verify that AutoCAD isn't running.
2. Open the Word document where you want to insert the AutoCAD drawing.
3. Select Insert/Object.
4. From the Object dialog box, select AutoCAD Drawing and click OK. The AutoCAD window will open.
5. In AutoCAD, change the display background to the white if necessary.
6. Because you can't open a drawing, you must select Insert/Block, then choose the file you want.
7. Once you've found the AutoCAD drawing that you want to insert inside the Word document, select File/Update Microsoft Word. The AutoCAD drawing you selected now appears on your Word document.
8. Close AutoCAD.
