How to convert a .PDF file to the DWF format?

You can print your PDF file from "Adobe Acrobat Reader" to a Windows DWF pseudo-printer Autodesk DWFwriter (see/download on www.autodesk.com/dwfwriter or www.cadstudio.cz/download) to convert it to .DWF (or DWFx) format file, more suitable for drawings (see other tips below).

Install the "DWF Writer" Windows driver, display your PDF file in Acrobat Reader and print it to the DWFwriter "printer" - this pseudoprinter will produce a DWF output file.
