Can someone tell me how this is done. Can't seem to find the format to import in.
Thanks
Happy Thanksgiving everyone

SOLUTION- Solved this by opening the .pdf in Illustrator and saving as .DWG. Then import link in Revit

There´s no build-in function in Revit to import PDF´s... But you "Could" export the PDF to a image format, like PNG, and then insert the image on the sheet... If you don´t have Acrobat to export from PDF to Image, you "Could" also just create (and adjust) a screen capture from the PDF... :beer:

So - It´s Thanksgiving today ? Didn´t realize that, but happy Thanksgiving to all my American friends over there. :beer:

I import the PDF into Acad then import as link into Revit. Works well for hardware cuts and misc details.

it is Thanksgiving! The turkey is in the oven and the pumpkin pie is cooling on the counter. Just about time for a gin fizz
