samifox Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 hi Is there a way to import all PDF pages at once? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGAL Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 I just tried manually -pdfattach and it asks for a pdf file page number insert point and so on You may be able to do a loop that just inserts and stops on error when page number does not exist.

samifox Posted May 28, 2018 Author Share Posted May 28, 2018 can be src or lisp? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dana W Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 No need for programming unless there are hundreds of pages. Command >> PDFATTACH >> browse to desired multi-page PDF. Select the file, then when the attach box opens, select first page, hold down SHIFT key and then select last page. Check Specify On Screen for Insertion Point, and uncheck the rest, unless you've written down the exact coordinates, scale factor and rotation angle for each page ahead of time. Now click where you want the first page to land, click another, click another. You can preset the the same point like 0,0, and 0 rotation, and scale 1 for each, and just click until all pages are inserted in the same place, last on top, then move, scale, whatever. Each page is still treated like a separate XREF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dana W Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 So close, it works for attach, just a shame it doesn't for import. sorry, not running 2010. With 2019 I converted a multi-page pdf to dwg easy peasy, in one swoop. What is so special about the Import thing? Never used it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steven-g Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 Import converts PDF to geometry and text, at least it does for a vector PDF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
