Create PDFs from MS Word documents with DWG files embedded


Using Adobe Acrobat Pro XI, I regularly create PDF documents from MS Word documents with AutoCAD DWG files embedded.  If I print to PDF it is well with integrated designs but if I use the plugin Acrobat text in the drawings would then become too light to see in the created PDF file.  I need to be able to convert to PDF format rather than print them in PDF format in order to have the bookmarks and links created automatically.  What parameters control the darkness of drawings ACAD contained in MS Word files when they are converted to PDF files?

Here are some screenshots from the built-in drawings prints/changed:

Converted to PDF.JPG

This problem was caused by the use of dynamic blocks with several line colors and thicknesses in the original DWG files.  They were used to allow the quick creation of drawings in AutoCAD for several different components that share similar attributes.  Unfortunately when these drawings are incorporated in MS Word or PDF files is created directly from these drawings, items in the drawing would randomly disappear when a PDF file created from them.  The solution is to open each offending in AutoCAD DWG file, move everything to layer zero and set the thickness of the text elements.

  • Create PDF from VBA with the same resolution from the Ribbon

    I use Word 2010 and Acrobat X Standard. I wrote a VBA application which creates a Word 2010 document and saves it in PDF format.

    I have a problem with export to PDF from Word 2010.

    In Word 2010, I've specified to the file, Options, advanced, do not compress the images and my pictures are saved in the Word document with high resolution.

    On the Acrobat Ribbon tag, I created my own preferences with any compression and downsample off.

    When I create a PDF file from the Ribbon, the resulting resolution of the PDF document is beautiful.

    I used the feature to record a Macro of Word to capture the action:

    ActiveDocument.ExportAsFixedFormat _

    OutputFileName: = "C:\Gary\Book Publishing\Projects\Problem with Images\Sample.pdf", _

    ExportFormat: = wdExportFormatPDF _

    OpenAfterExport: = False _

    OptimizeFor: = wdExportOptimizeForPrint _

    Range: = wdExportAllDocument _

    From: = 1, _

    À : = 1, _

    Agenda: = wdExportDocumentContent, _

    IncludeDocProps: = False _

    KeepIRM: = False _

    CreateBookmarks: = wdExportCreateHeadingBookmarks _

    DocStructureTags: = True _

    BitmapMissingFonts: = False _

    UseISO19005_1: = False

    When I put this code in my code VBA for Word, the images in the PDF output are at a much lower resolution. It feels like the Preferences are not honored.  Any ideas?

    I agree, you do a very reasonable assumption; What happened ago just weird... I don't know if the Adobe is doing, or Word...  In any case, here is the documentation for the method uses the macro, because Adobe do not offer an alternative. http://msdn.Microsoft.com/en-us/library/Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word._Document.exportasfi xedformat.aspx

  • Cannot create PDF from Office documents

    My Acrobat 9 Std installation was damaged, so I re-installed 9.0 and added all updates to 9.3.4. When I try to create a PDF from an Office document, I get a pop-up window:

    Additional files need to be installed to create PDFS from this file.
    You want to run the Acrobat installer in repair mode?

    I clicked YES, with the CD in the drive; the process lasted more than 15 minutes and ended normally.

    But when I try to create a PDF file, I get the same message again.

    Any thoughts on how to fix?

    Hi sdr2014,

    I'm sorry to hear that your conversion process is at a standstill. It seems that the problem is not specific to a single file, you have been unable to convert anything, since the first four chapters of a correct conversion.

    So, let's try this:

    If you want to convert via the ExportPDF site, please sign out, clear the browser cache, and then reconnect. If you use the drive, please choose Help > updates to ensure that you have installed the latest version.

    Please let us know how it goes.

  • How can I change a PDF to a word document?

    How do you change aa PDF to a word document?

    In favorite Mac method (because it uses the engine of PDF from Adobe):

    1. Save the file as a word Document (for backup)
    2. Go to the print Menu
    3. Click and hold the PDF button until the context menu appears
    4. Choose Adobe PDF
    5. Expect that the change menu - choose quality (this eqivelent to the employment opportunities in distilling) and turn off open them with the reader (or Acrobat)
    6. Then click OK to go to the nex window element
    7. Either use the given title or change (I usually remove references to Microsoft Word - and .docx to only show just like for example Joes.pdf).
    8. Browse (choose) to desired saving location.
    9. Click Save.

    Navigate to the saved location and open.

    Notes: Expect several PDF if the Word document page have switches in the orientations of the Page.

    URL links not cme with this method.

    To have Urls to be active (except those created with the Format menu > URL)

    Follow these steps:

    1. Locate the Word Document
    2. Locate the Acrobat icon in the Dock (similar to the Start Menu on PC)
    3. Drag the word document to Acrobat on the Dock and drop icon
    4. Wait... You have enough time for you to boil a pot of coffee
    5. When PDF is displayed on the screen save both!

    You have now a document that will direct MailTo and URLS except for those created with the wizard of the URL (select the desired word > go to the Formtat menu > URL > when opens type desired URL or Mailto)

    Hi shelbyrn,

    The quality of conversion is really depends on the quality of the original PDF file. Please see Will Adobe ExportPDF convert text and shape... | Adobe Community.  Do you know what who or how the PDF was created?

    You can have better luck by disabling OCR as described in this paper: How to disable the optical character recognition (O... |) Adobe Community.

    Dear community - can I put a Word document with images in InDesign CC?

    Having been spoiled by always my own composition and page layout and currently

    have a person of InDesign layout to try my book, I returned to Sandee Cohen

    InDesign CC Visual Quickstart Guide hoping that I can learn what I need to know.

    I ask myself this question before really getting into InDesign CC book because my doc Word of the book

    I carefully designed with 140 photos and other images have been incorporated.

    Naturally, I hope that I can place in InDesign that way and not text first, followed by Visual effects.

    If I can add something that may or may not serious in the context of my question,.

    I just want to say that I published my spirit that moves us poetry and fiction press

    from 1975 to 2000 beginning to photograph the sending to the printer a

    plateau composer with 8K of memory and later on using QuarkXPress 4 (it's now up to 100)

    that I tried with my paper I inadvertently came to assume in 80 years, but found it impossible.

    Hi bethm19302338,

    Start Outlook, click the Adobe PDF tab, click conversion settings.

    Once you see the conversion settings window, check if this option is checked "block download of external content. Try to uncheck and restart outlook and conversion, and then try again.
