Either PLOT (to the printer "DWG To PDF.pc3") or EXPORTPDF.

You have to be in AutoCAD to use either command.

You can use ClassicPDF editor for the conversion, it can convert nearly 500+ printable files into PDF, it just installs a simple printer driver during installation, and then you just have to click print for any file and select classicPDF as printer and click print and then file is converted into a PDF file. I hope this works well for you!
