hello we have autocad lt 2004 and we are trying to save a .dwg to .pdf so that we can do our submittals electronically, they want to view everything in .pdf viewer.
thank you for any help that anyone can provide
have a great day
Your plot dialog box should have a roll down plotter selection and among those selections is DWG to PDF.pc3
If that version is too early for the PDF pc3 file then you will need to acquire Full Acrobat (way too expensive for wht it does) or use one of the free ones available online such as PDF Grabber

PDF995 works well for me.
Although I do think you are missing a lot more by not using the later versions of LT.
DWG to PDF being the least of what's changed. (Not available in LT 2004. Didn't come in till '08 or '09, I think)
Autodesk Trueview may work for you. This may allow the 2004 format drawing to be plotted to PDF.
Worth a download and try; alas I cannot.

There is a FREEWARE program named "CutePDF writer".
You can easily googling with "CutePDF"
once you install the program you will see a new printer in your system and through plot with this printer, you can create PDF files from any programs including AUTOCAD as well.
It's quite useful and simple way to creat PDF I think.
Should try... ^^
