I am going to try this one more time...

My plasma guy would like dxf files to input my line drawings to his
computer. I can scan my line drawings in photoshop and save them as
tiff's, then he has to go through a mess to convert them to dxf or
"vector"
I would love to be able to give him a dxf file.
At on time I received a coral draw file via e-mail and then was able to
open it and resave it in the coral dxf. then I gave it to a laser guy
who was able to open it and use it.
I can open my tiff in coral and look at it and then save it , but the
plasma guys can not open it.. Something in there program dislikes
coral's dxf.

Is there any other program that I can use to convert the tiff to a dxf..

Something at reasonable price not at auto cad program prices...

An I not understanding the conversion process, is  the process of taking
a raster line drawing and converting it to a vector drawing is far more
complicated then I think????
