I know there have been a few threads about this recently with a few options but can't recall exactly where it was posted or thread title. 

You can try this (free) to convert an image to DXF.

We use Scan2CAD but depending on the complexity, it's simply easier to trace it over again.

If you have Adobe Illustrator, you can save an image out as a DXF.
