Inserting PDF into C3D 2009 Question..

[hworth18]

Is there any way to improve the quality of the PDF Image in Autocad Civil 3D? I am inserting a PDF using the simple "Drag and Drop" method and the quality of the conversion is horrible, mainly text recognition. Any suggestions to get a better quality image?

If you are on subscription you can download a PDF Underlay Bonus thing
for 2009 which will work better, although I can't remember if it worked
on Civil3D.

Otherwise look into an import utility like this one

Terry, Thanks for the response, but I went another direction and just exported the PDF to a TIFF which got the result I needed. Edited by: hworth18 on May 6, 2010 3:02 PM
