Importing PDF Underlay Data
nanoCAD button – Utilities > Converting PDF to DWG
Menu: File – Drawing Utilities > Converting PDF to DWG
Command line: PDF2DWG
The command converts PDF underlay (fully or partially) into nanoCAD objects. PDF underlay should be inserted into the document in advance.
To convert PDF underlay data:
1. Run the PDF2DWG command.
2. Select the PDF underlay.
3. Specify on the screen a rectangular area to import part of objects or select the All option in the command line to import all underlay data.
4. At the prompt in the command line: Keep or upload PDF underlay? [Keep/Upload] <Upload> - select the desired option.
The uploaded underlays are not displayed and are not printed, but references to them are saved in the External references dialog.
The Options command line option opens a brief dialog PDF import settings to set import parameters.
