Hi, When I converted a dwg to pdf (with pdfmaker in autocad) I lose the picture. I did a lot of testing and nothing works.(Reduce the image quality etc.)Only when I use "export" in pdf I RECOVERED my picture but I lost my hyperlinks.  I need in   my final  PDF  , layer, hyperlink and pictures. Can you help me ? thanks

PDF's were never meant to be a substitute for a .dwg file and our dependence on them is questionable at best.

thank you for your participation, but I am forced to usePDFIt is used for making available plans for common users in an archiving system. This archiving system to use only the PDF as viewformat (system used by all the group across europe). Everything worked fine with my old PC with Windows XP.

[QUOTE=kined] Everything worked fine with my old PC with Windows XP.[/QUOTE]So you are implying the problem isn't with AutoCAD but with the OS you are running?  That doesn't make much sense.

I'm not a computer engineer, just a common user of software, but the OS is a data that could explain it.I used Acrobat pro and AutoCAD 2010 on XP,  and now with windows 7 is acrobat DC and  autocad 2014.In any case it should work !! either XP or windows 7 !!

But you also have another variable (i.e. - the version of Acrobat being used) do you not?

Well I just ran a test creating a PDF from within AutoCAD of a drawing that contains a picture and a hyperlink to an Excel spreadsheet.  When the PDF opened the picture was there and the hyperlink worked.  I'm running AutoCAD 2017 on a computer that uses Windows 7 Pro as the OS.  So, one of two things is happening.  Either you are doing something wrong and don't realize it or the problem lies with Acrobat.  The problem isn't AutoCAD or the OS.

Maybe this is usefull for you.To me it seems like a setting in pdfmaker.......... http://help.adobe.com/nl_NL/acrobat/pro/using/acrobat_X_pro_help.pdf

You want the OP to rummage through 538 pages of a PDF document to find the answer to his problem?  Maybe you could narrow it down for him?  What page(s) should he look at?

Thanks for the test  I have ask the question on the acrobat forum and autodesk forum.   i would come here if it finds a solution

A search with "hyperlink" narrows it down John, then some settings for export to pdf with hyperlink wil show.It is the closest i can get because we dont'use pdfmaker.Therefore i can't look up the settings.And my feeling says it is a pdfmaker setting

Agreed.
