greener21 Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 A client sent me a old layout PDF file and I want to make changes to it. How can I turn it into a working file?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkMc Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 You have to trace it. I like to convert to DWG with another progam to trace so I can snap to it. Bring it into a CAD detail, check the size, set all to a layer, copy, paste hold position in plan, unblock or you can't snap, lock the layer. Nothing will snap to a PDF. Lot of folks convert the PDF to an image file (png or jpg) and trace that. NOTE- lock the layer that the pdf, png, or dwg is on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
