This "conversion" is included in AutoCAD - you can find it under printing (the PLOT command). You can use both PDF and many raster formats to print/plot your drawing with standard AutoCAD functions.

Assuming you have your AutoCAD started (as a novice in AutoCAD), use OPEN to load your DWG file and then use PLOT to plot it. From the list of printers, select "DWG to PDF.pc3".
For raster output (JPG, PNG, GIF...) you may need to add a printer first. Use the PLOTTERMANAGER command and click Add Printer. Then select Autodesk Raster devices.
