Using MS Explorer on the www?
 
Try http://www.iespell.com/download.php a free spell checker loads to tools in your browser. Excellent free program.
 
When posting, before clickin' "Post Reply", go to Tools> ieSpell.
The program checks your online spelling and offers corrections and options for misspelled words.  Clap
 
I spelled "mispelled", ieSpell tagged the word and offered "misspelled."
I corrected it, very nice little download. Been usin'  ieSpell for several years.  Never any problems.

I just recently tried BackToCAD and it seems to be a better output than pdf2cad.  It's less expensive and they combine raster and vector into a single package which pdf2cad is only for vector PDF's.  Seems like a no brainer.  Any BackToCAD users out there with any feedback?

I just converted three *.pdf's to *.dxf files.
Ugh. The *.pdf's were images.
 
Inserted the image in AutoCAD, sent them to the background (draworder), scaled, went to work tracing or, when known, used the dimensions in the image.
 
Simple stuff but, got me goin'.
I trashed the images after use.
 
FYI. The *.pdf once converted delivered a blank *.dxf file but the images were in the file where I downloaded and saved the *.pdf.
 
I might have waited days for an emailed *.dwg file.

Hi all,

if you have PDF that was published from CAD software (not scanned as PDF), you can use ProgeCAD to convert it to dwg file. It does an excellent job, much better than any other software (and I tried many). It is very similar software to AutoCAD and you can use trial for few weeks.

regards

Karol

Tulip3D:
 
My GF, Karen Ferguson, recently applied for work at your facility.
Might you be able to help? A little bit? She emailed her resume last week to your Commerce Boulevard facility off Route 663.
 
Any help, appreciated. TANKS in advance.

Tank, just asked our HR dept about her, said she did get it. Couldnt tell me much more because of privacy reasons, but in short she said that she has a sh*t load of applicants, alot of competition (sign of the times I suppose?).
She apperently is looking for assemblers/QC dept personnal...personally I couldnt be an assembler, would blow my brains out from the repetition. And QC has it tough, ALOT of detailing type crap they have to do. Verify ALL of my dimensions and what not on incomming components. Not easy, lol.
So, I wish her luck, but thats about all I can do, im in the engineering dept.
But that was good forward thinking, to ask me.
Take care man, and tell her to keep her head up!
