In this productivity study, you will see how the Raster Design toolset saves time through features including:
- Tools to execute the correlation/scaling and coordinate values of a raster image in one workflow.
- The Raster Design palette provides comprehensive image data including image properties, image colors, and image file location.
- Specialized tools that give the same results as basic AutoCAD with quicker, more efficient workflows.
- Define regions of varying shapes in the raster image and manipulate them individually.
- The Optical Character Recognition (OCR) tools which convert raster text entities to Multiline Text (MText)

About the study
Autodesk commissioned a study that compared basic AutoCAD to the Raster Design toolset when preparing designs using raster images.
Results showed that the Raster Design toolset provided up to 48% overall productivity gain* compared with basic AutoCAD, when these tasks were performed by an experienced AutoCAD user.
