   Interesting idea.  Maybe you'll have to trace the CAD drawing to get the effect you want, while reatining the precision of the CAD drawing.

   Recommending the use of "Hide Signatures" option under "My Preferences" since 2005

   Ive dowloaded a trial version of squiggle. Could anyone tell me how to export an autocad drawing into squiggl to be able to work on it? I have never used 2 programs in conjunction with eachother.

   I believe you need to use AutoCAD to create JPEG files. From there you can use squiqqle to modify the new file.

   JPEGs in AutoCAD...In the Plotter Manager in AutoCAD, click on Add a New Plotter. JPEGs are under the Raster File Formats. Once this is done, when you go to plot your CAD drawing, you can select JPEG instead of your usual printer.

   JR -From what it appears on their site, the program will read the .dwg file directly.
