Hi!

I need to export the drawing from AutoCAD to Microsoft Word document in 1:1, but I cannot find a way to do that. I tried to export the drawing with "DWG to PDF.pc3 and than with Adobe Reader XI Pro save .pdf as .docx but it only exports lines and sqares and not also the circles and more complicated parts of a drawing. I know there is a way to get a pixel picture but I need a vector drawing in Word as well.

Does anyone have an idea how to export it?

Thanks a lot!
Jan

There is no "1:1" scale for raster images. But you can use the WMF export (vectors). Or just a copy/paste - see the related tip:

If I make Ctrl+C & Ctrl+V I do not get the appropriate scale. I drew 100 mm long line in AutoCAD and I want it to be 100 mm on the paper when I print it from Word document on a paper. Even if I set the Width and Height on 100% in Word it is not it. WMFOUT did the same thing. I get the drawing in Word, but not 1:1.

Is there no easy way to just export the selected drawing from AutoCAD in Word?

Most people who import an AutoCAD drawing into Word are doing so for graphical purposes and scale is of no concern.  But for those who are intent are pursuing this further my advice would be to print the drawing to scale in a PDF then convert the PDF file to a Word file.  You'll have to find the conversion software to do this yourself.
