How to Convert from PDF Drawings to CAD Drawings any one helps great.gangulamr@gmail.com+96551610321

There are a bunch of programs out there.AnyDWG, Print2CAD (to name just two).Google "pdf to dwg conversion".There's even a free online service: http://dwg.autodwg.com/Note: The pdf to be converted must be a "true" vector pdf, not a pdf as from a scanned image which results in a raster image.

Thanks Robbort,How is BricsCAD v16? If you compare with CAD..

Imported .lin, .pat, font files without issue.CAD guru Ralph Grabowski wrote/published a comparison here:https://www.bricsys.com/bricscad/docs/en_INTL/V16/BricsCADV16ForAutoCADusers-en_INTL.pdf

@ $49 - $149/month.or $699 - $1,500 for lifetime license.Seriously?

Thats Sick indeed, there are a lot of freeware programs

What about the built-in tool in Autocad 2017? Best I've seen.

[QUOTE=Kajito]What about the built-in tool in Autocad 2017? Best I've seen.[/QUOTE]The person that originally posted the question uses AutoCAD 2012.  Can't use the 2017 built-in tool if you aren't running the program.

Adobe Illustrator has the best convertor that I've seen. If you have this program I highly recommend it. It even converted blocks for me.
