Able Vector - A shareware to vectorise Raster (digital) Images to vectorgraph (such as Adobe Illustrator, Macromedia Freehand, or CorelDraw, AutoCAD, TigerCAD, IronCAD etc.) in line style. It makes it possible to import and edit your company logo, idiograph or other picture (.tiff, .jpeg, .bmp, etc . . .) in your own vector image and allows you to change color with ease.
AlgoLab - AlgoLab Raster to Vector Conversion Toolkit converts architect, mechanical and various technical drawings, maps and other types of line artwork including black and white graphics for books and journals from raster to vector formats. This means that a paper drawing can be scanned, line artwork automatically recognized and represented in a vector format that then can be imported to your CAD or drawing program.
