Thanks for the reply.
PDFATTACH doesn't bring in the pdf as such.
2013 you could import  and it came in as lines/vectors that you could work with.
Now on 2020 and they won't import at all.

Version 2020 has the same PDFIMPORT command as the previous versions of AutoCAD (and LT).

Thanks
I'll try that command
I suspect though that the drawings are pictures saved as pdfs and it's not reading the line/vectors etc
