[GIS] How to insert georeferenced PNG into correct location in AutoCAD Map3D

autocadgeoreferencingpng

I have a PNG of building plans that I will need to digitize in AutoCAD Map3D. I have georeferenced the PNG in ArcGIS, which has produced a world file (.pgwx) in the same directory in which the image is stored. When I attempt to bring this image into AutoCAD using either Insert Image or Data Connect, I am prompted to specify an insertion point. It is clearly not recognizing the resource file. How can I open a georeferenced PNG in AutoCAD Map3D in the correct location?

reaname world file to .pgw from .pnwx. keep both image and world in same directory with same name.
