I woulb be nice that Autosketch would one day import at least such PDF, which have single image. Nowadays I must often extract PDF or convert PDF into PNG format.

in architecture, almost all drawings being circulated with clients and consultants are pdfs. the ability to sketch over a pdf would be extremely useful. autodesk being the dominant software provider in this industry, i would think that you are more than aware of this. i and many many other architects and designers in general would greatly appreciate if this feature would be added to an already good app/program.

When will the ability to import and export PDF on sketchbook?

99.9% of the time this field uses PDFs.

Sketchbook isn't used for architecture design, but for graphic design and illustration, which seldom use the PDF format. Also, it's a free program, so we kind of get what we get, you know?

You make a valid point here! But they support TIFF, BMP, GIF, JPEG, PNG, and PSD; these are already "specialist formats". They might as well add PDF and be inclusive, it's 2020, haha!

You can use the free service at ConvertPDF.Today to convert your PDF files into any of the Sketchbook import formats.
