Good Day,

Adobe would benefit by working on the inclusion of pdf files (or some derivative) into AutoCAd files.

Being able to 'go both ways' would be a great selling point for adobe.

Right now we convert to tif and 'insert' a raster image. This procedure puts a frame around the insertion which my clients do not want.

OLE doesn't work Inserting a pdf as an OLE only gives a box with the pdf logo icon in the middle of it.

Obviously, PDF is the only way to go with cad files because the contractors have adobe acrobat reader but not autocad. The contractors and many others do not want the complications of learning autocad.
