You can Drag your pdf strait into your autocad.  and it inserts it into your drawing sort of like OLE object. ]]> Mon, 16 Mar 2009 20:24:54 +0000 https://www.cadforum.cz/forum_en/forum_posts.asp?TID=1780&PID=4973&title=pdfs-into-autocad#4973 <![CDATA[PDF's into AutoCAD : No you can not import PDF into...]]> https://www.cadforum.cz/forum_en/forum_posts.asp?TID=1780&PID=4963&title=pdfs-into-autocad#4963 Author: tkelly

 No you can not import PDF into Autocad directly yet. but as I read on internet about features in Autocad 2010 It states that they have added feature for PDF import in Autocad.
 
Since I suppose you use 2008 Autocad it is best to redraft instead of using software for raster to vector conversion.
 
The process you can follow is to convert PDF into JPEG format and then insert JPEG into Autocad . Then you can draw as you want.

There are several PDF-to-DXF or PDF-to-WMF utilities. I would vote against any non-Autodesk utility which writes/creates DWG files -- such forged DWG files are often source of serious problems.]]> Tue, 10 Mar 2009 14:49:02 +0000 https://www.cadforum.cz/forum_en/forum_posts.asp?TID=1780&PID=4921&title=pdfs-into-autocad#4921 <![CDATA[PDF's into AutoCAD : Yes.I use &#039;&#039;PDF to DWG...]]> https://www.cadforum.cz/forum_en/forum_posts.asp?TID=1780&PID=4920&title=pdfs-into-autocad#4920 Author: The_Man

Many manufacturers post drawings of their products for download in a PDF format.
