    Default Convert Microsoft Visio Stencils to CAD

    Registered forum members do not see this ad.

    Does anyone know how to Convert Visio stencils to Autocad.
    So far, I have converted the visio stencil to a pdf file and then taken the PDF file and converted it to a DXF file and then to cad, but I am losing so much of the integrity of the image. It does not read clear. There must be a way! Please let me know.

    You have to have Visio pro to be able to export to a dwg file. Not sure if there are any convertors out there. Can you download a 30 demo of Pro to convert your stencils?
    Please do not PM me with CAD questions. Post your question on the forum. Our users are the best out there and you'll get the best possible answer to your question.
