CAD-LOVER0208 Posted January 18, 2009 Posted January 18, 2009 Hello, I have a question about PDF. Files... Is there anyway that I can insert PDF in AutoCAD, or open a PDF. in AutoCAD ????? My friend at school converted my DWG. to PDF. Now that I’m checking it, i found a couple of mistakes, I don't know what to do, and i don't have any converting programs in my pc, and i don't even know how to do that, cuz i never needed to convert anything important.. should I just open the PDF. in cad and fix it, or I really don't know, I can't wait till I go to college Monday and do it there because i have other classes all day, so I really want to finish it today... Sorry if I’m confusing you .. I really get panicked when I don’t know how to do something.... I just want to know if there is anyway i can open, insert, export or anything like that to open my PDF. DWG, in AutoCAD... Any help is appreciated.. Thanks in advance Quote
Tankman Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 Converting *.pdf to *.dwg is a headache. Try the free trial download from www.pdf2cad.com. The program converts *.pdf to a *.dxf file that you can open in AutoCAD naturally. Quote
hugha Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 The PDF isn't a conversion replacing the original DWG file - it's just a published format like a plot file or a DWF. You should still have the original DWG file - fix the mistakes there and republish. Quote
CAD-LOVER0208 Posted January 19, 2009 Author Posted January 19, 2009 It worked.... thank you.. it actually worked ... Well that's the problem, after converting it to pdf. at school, i deleted my origional file, which is so stupid of me, I always have backup for everything I do.. Thank you again so much, i can now republish my dwg. back to pdf. tomorrow again, and of course i have a back up now .. Quote
