I did a search and couldnt get any good results so I was wondering what program everyone uses to convert cad files into pdf. Also are there any that work well and are available with some sort of a trial period or for free.
Thanks in advance,
-Bryan

can you print the drawing in acrobat distiller?

i go to file>plot

and then the print/plot menu comes up and i select "Acrobat Distiller" from the "Name: "


like this:

and then it'll ask you where to save the *.pdf file

I use pdf995 (www.pdf995.com) I think a non-pop up version is only $10

The company I work for uses Win2PDF, but think it's like $30. I think they got ripped off. Doesn't CutePDF do the same thing for free??
