# Importing Drawings and Plans

You can import plans from multiple file formats such as cad, dwg, .pdf, .jpeg, and .png into Avontus Designer to use as a 2D or flat background for your drawing page. It is recommended that you first adjust the scale and size of the Drawing Page before importing a plan. For information about matching the page size and the scale of a plan, refer to *[Customizing the Drawing Page Size and/or Scale](/v1/docs/customizing-the-drawing-page-size-andor-scale)*.
