Over the past few months we have started to have issue copying and pasting drawings into PowerPoint, especially if there is a lot of hatching.

If using the standard ‘copy’ in AutoCAD when you paste into PowerPoint the image quality can be very poor.

Historically we have used BetterWMF but this also has issues.

One possible solution to this is to use the ‘Copy Link’ option in Autocad (from the edit menu)

Now in PowerPoint if you do a ‘paste special’ again from the edit menu and select picture (JPEG), the image should paste but at a higher quality than before.
