Accuracy is the name of the game with conversions.

Axiom offers hand-drawn, economical (meaning less expensive than if you were to do them), on-time, accurate conversions from raster to intelligent CAD for small projects or large, complex ones. No time, not enough personnel, not enough money in the budget? No problem!

Axiom has added this service in response to customer demand for more economical, more accurate paper and raster conversions to AutoCAD and MicroStation files. Digital Conversion Services is not a software product but rather a service now offered by Axiom. And if you think it's as expensive as it would be to pay one of your drafters to do it, it isn't!

The conversion work we do is 100% accurate to your specifications, or you don't pay a dime. First, we find out what your CAD standards and specifications are, and then our human operators drawn your paper or raster files to CAD just like you want them to be. Our project managers review the conversion work done before delivering the files to you to ensure that all your demands are met. If they're not, you don't pay until they are! That's a 100% money-back guarantee that conversion software can not offer.

"Axiom Conversion Services allows us to have accurate AutoCAD drawing files in a timely and inexpensive manner. Because the showroom renovation project is an ongoing project, we have had to fine-tune our conversion, drawing and dissemination requirements, but Axiom has been flexible and reliable to our needs as they have changed. Often I call Karl [Toth, Axiom's Conversion Delivery Specialist] with an immediate deadline. He has always worked with us so that we have the drawings back quickly and within the deadline.

"The time it would take for us to manually do what Axiom does for us through raster-to-vector conversion would make the showroom project impossible. Without Axiom, the project costs would greatly increase due to time spent working on conversions in-house.

"Our relationship with Axiom has been enjoyable and productive. Axiom Conversion Services has always been reliable and timely and the drawings have been accurate and to all our specifications. We have told other project teams in our office to call Axiom Conversion Services when they need conversion work done. When we have drawings that need conversion, Axiom is the only company we call."

Falynn Schmidt of Pieper O'Brien Herr, Alpharetta, Georgia

The headaches involved

Paper or raster conversion to intelligent CAD can be a headache. Inaccurate drawings are the curse of the industry. In spite of high expenses, the results may still need much redrawing! Older plots can be torn or dirty. Scanned drawings can be so light at times that parts of the actual designs can be lost. Finding qualified personnel on a temporary basis to handle an occasional large job is difficult unless one has an unlimited budget. All these factors make conversion to intelligent CAD a nightmare.

"Axiom Conversion Services did the work faster than I expected, and it cost me a lot less than I could hope to get it done for in-house or anywhere else for that matter. If you have paper drawings or digital images that you need converted to MicroStation for any type of project this has got to be the best value around. I use them for all this type of work now."

Barbara Hopkins of US Army Corps of Engineers, Braddock, Pennsylvania
