Adding PDFs / Logos to be printed on Fabric and CNC cut. (Tent Manufacturing)

          I work for a tent manufacturing company as a engineer.  I design vehicles covers for Israel.  There are many printed labels that get RF welded onto the covers.   These labels are created by me sending the desired geometry to our graphic designers.  They are using Adobe Illustrator to add Hebrew text, as well as different logos.  They create PDFs and send them to our printer.  Then to be ran on our CNC cutter.  Many times we RF weld labels upside down because we do not read Hebrew. 

 

I am trying to have the PDF labels incorporated into my AutoCAD file.   Eliminate the graphic designers, and the need to weld on labels. Just have them printed right onto the panels themselves from my AutoCAD file.

This is a new process I am unfamiliar with. 

 

Any tips?

Thanks.

Are you not aware of PDFATTACH or PDFIMPORT commands in AutoCAD? Look up usage in HELP, it's not hard to use.
Or are you having some other issue after trying these?

PDF are raster or vector based? Find out, your CNC machine might not do well with raster-based content.

Maybe you can try this one: CNCOUT.

But because  Hebrew text is running from right to left, the result is wrong.

You can use some add-on to reverse the letter order before using it.
