A Graphics Library...Why?

[Mollye Barrett]

Depends on functionality... I use a graphics tracker for file management
with thumbnails for accurate identification and a format conversion
generator for multiple formats. Powered by a database, each graphic has
searchable metadata, automated file numbering and version control. This is
especially important for layered graphics with standard base drawings.
Also excellent for associating with assembly numbers and other where-used
information. A graphics tracker is aabsolutely essential when working with
equipment and engineering graphics.
