#AUTOCAD FOR MAC PDF FILES LARGE PDF#
If you’re loading the PDF for the first time hit the ↵ button on your keyboard or type F↵. To begin using the feature, select Import PDF from the Import section of the Insert ribbon tab in AutoCAD 2017: In a straw poll at an Autodesk event in 2015 over 90% said they would use this feature if AutoCAD had it, but what many people may not have realised is that it has now been rolled out.
This is a victory for many AutoCAD users and could save tireless hours drawing over the top of imported PDFs as you may have had to do in the past. Unlike in the past when you imported a PDF the geometry within your PDF is now instantly DWG ready and not simply something to use as an underlay. Thankfully Autodesk recognised this issue and added a new Import PDF feature to AutoCAD 2017. As an AutoCAD user you probably regularly export drawings to PDF.īut what happens if you want to edit the drawing or view it in its original DWG state? This presents a challenge, you might be in a situation where you can’t obtain access to the original DWG and the only solution is to work from the PDF you have and essentially redraw it (or have somebody else redraw it). It’s a format that is easily accessible and if drawings are being shared around, quickly exporting a PDF is probably the route you take.

Thanks very much to Nick from Acuity training for this guest post showing us how. Have you ever wished you could import PDF from Adobe into an AutoCAD DWG File?
