PDF Clipping-Masking-Transparency


randomBullets

Recommended Posts

Ok, I'm working with ACAD 2013. I need some way of masking part of a PDF underlay. Basically I am attempting to call out something on architectural plans and create a listing on a table. The mask needs to be transparent, kinda fading the rest of the plans out, leaving my little callout box.

 

The ways I can think of doing this involve a little trickery. I think if you bring the PDF (2) times create a clip then create the opposite clip then turn the fade up on the outer one should work.

 

But maybe there is a easier way? Can someone advise?

 

Thanks in advance.

another thing I realized is that you can only pick one pline for the clip? That won't work for my needs. Maybe I should just mark up the PDF and then bring it in?
