Hi @Anonymous

 

Welcome to the Fusion 360 Community!

 

I guess I am a little confused as to what your intended workflow is. Just to check - have you gotten rid of your original sketches that you exported to the PDF? If not, you should be able to go to the File menu and select New Drawing from Design and instead of outputting as a PDF document, choose DWG instead. Also, if you only wanted to export your sketches and not a drawing, you can export those as a DXF. 

 

Can you tell me a little bit more about the workflow you are trying to achieve here? I may be able to give better advice after knowing that. For example, if you need to create a DWG from the PDF file, I believe there is some software (link here to an article I found) that will convert your PDF to a vector graphics format (SVG) which you then could import back into Fusion and export as a DWG (seems like a lengthy process however).
