Re: PDF file
Many thanks for all the responses to my request. Harley Kelsey has made the conversion and Ron has the sketches. Again, thank you all. Jim
RE: PDF file
Yes, if they show on the screen. Some CAD programs use color or code to designate line weights for printing though, and I don't know how that transfers through a DXF format. I can't remember how Turbocad is set up. If you screen shows line weights, you should be able to copy the image and paste special it as a picture in MS Word to get a bitmap that will convert in Adobe Acrobat.

RE: PDF file
Jim, Copy the CAD drawing to MS Word and then make a PDF file from that. Make sure you embed the text otherwise sometimes this will jump all over the place. Some CAD programs do not work with Acrobat. Do you have the full Acrobat program to make a PDF? What CAD program do you have.

A little off topic but I'm looking for someone with experience making PDF files from CAD files. Ron Brown needs me to convert some files for an article. Thank you in advance. Jim
