 Topic: pdf to dwg coverterPosted: 09.Sep.2010 at 21:29 |

Converting DWG paper space to PDF's has usally been rather simple, and upon opendning the pdf files generally there used to be no layers to turn off and on.
Now that I am running autocad 2011 Lt. I am finding that when a DWG is converted to pdf and opened in adobe reader there is the ability to turn on and off layers. Is there anyway to stop this from happening either in autocad or adobe acrobat 9.0? (the version on my computer) |

I offen Use Illustrator open PDF and export to DFX format.
But the PDF must be built by AutoCAD or some drawing software and not a picture!

Hello,
I can confirm a fully functional pdf2cad 30 days trial version is available from http://www.pdf2cad.com.
If you do not have the time to test pdf2cad, you can upload a test file and Visual Integrity will convert it for you.
If you think pdf2cad does not a great job, please contact us at support-at-pdf2cad.com and let us know why you are not satisfied with the conversion results. We will be more than happy to help you fine tune conversion options to reach your expectations.

I USE PRINT2CAD CONVERSTION SOFTWARE. $149 SOFTWARE THAT TAKES CARE OF VECTOR PDFS NICELY. RASTER PDFS PRETTY MUCH NEED TO BE REDRAWN AFTER CONVERSION.

You could also try www.pdf2cad.com.
Not a great job but, it will get you started.
I believe there is a free trial download to try it out.
I use pdf2cad on occasion.
Good luck!

Yes, like Tankman said. You can modify the drawings. Yet the line weights and layers may not be the same. That depends if they plotted with it. If they flatten the pdf. Then layers won't be available.

You'll re-work the AutoCAD drawing and make revisions and/or changes there.
You could open the *.pdf in Adobe Pro and do a little *.pdf cropping there, save as a *.pdf then open in Illustrator.

Hello
Open the PDF in Adobe Illustrator. Then export the drawing to AutoCAD on a 8 bit setting. Open the drawing and use scale command to scale the drawing according to the pdf drawing scale. If there isn't a drawing scale then use a dimension on the drawing. Good Luck!!! |
