Export 2d PDF from Inventor without vectorial information.

[bruno_milano]

Hello everyone,

for confidentiality reasons, I have to export Inventor idw or dwg files to pdf without vector information.
To prevent the drawing from being reconstructed by importing them into Autocad.
Is there a procedure for doing this?
Thank you all.

Bruno Milano.

Export the drawing to JPEG.

Or Lower DPI in PDF.

Tank you @Frederick_Law,

I think it's the only way then.
Unfortunately, however, I don't have a batch procedure to do this, I think I will have to use Inventor's task scheduler to export the tables to raster files and then pdf.

Lower dpi pdf block the pdf to autocad conversion?

It make it look worse.

Circles are not circle.  Some small features are gone.

Export one and test in AutoCAD.

The truth is, if someone want to copy it, they can.

If they can buy it, they got a copy already.

People who want it cheap will never buy it from you anyway.
