    Default PDF Import

    What are the limitations for the new feature?

    I have a pdf of a lot survey and it won't bring in any data. I'm not sure
    how the pdf was created.

    Do they have to be plotted from Autocad in order to be able to import the data?

    well, it has to be a vector PDF, and works best with PDFs created using autoCAD. Although most vector PDFs should work -- Adobe illustrator, Bentley, etc should work (somewhat at least). A scan-to-pdf is useless for importing, but you can PDFATTACH and trace onscreen,
