Need some file conversion help

[Whizzle]

Can I convert a dwg. file (autocad) to an adobe file by myself. Some place just tried to charge me $15 for one printed fullsize drawing so ill be taking my business elsewhere

if you have autocad, you can get a plugin made by Solidworks called dwg gateway.

it allows you to create pdf's as well as save autocad files to previous version. (i.e. you can convert an acad 2007 back to an acadr14)

And if you DON'T have AutoCAD, you can download this package:

and print to Adobe PDF using Adobe Professional or a shareware .pdf generator.

Here is a good FREE PDF creator. If you can print it, you can create a PDF:

Haven't upgraded to 2007 yet. Did they do away with the ability to save as previous release versions within AutoCAD??

Sorry for the sidetrack...back to your regular thread.
