I am having trouble with builders sending PDF's for bids. Is there any way ti insert the PDF into Autcad 2008 to scale so that I can draw over the PDF image and recreat the plan to scale? Nay help is apreciated

I do this ALL the time. Just scale the PDF, but use the Reference command to reference a dimension or any known size, such as a door. Easy as cake.

Sure! Take a known measurement of any part of the *.pdf and scale up/down as required.

 

Or, and it doesn't do a great job, www.pdf2cad.com. Works in a pinch.

You will still need to scale the resulting image.

 

Like StykFacE said, "Easy as cake."
