Editor's review
PDF document is the best distribution file format to distribute your drawing files. You can view / print your drawing files without the need of AutoCAD. DWG to PDF Converter allows you to convert DWG/DXF/DWF format file to PDF document format. Professional version provides you DOS command line interface.
Features: This is a batch conversion utility used to convert industry standard DWG or DXF files to PDF documents individually or in a batch. You need to follow step by step process to convert your DWG/PDF/DWF files to PDF document format file. In first step you can select files from folder to add for conversion, add folder (filters DWG, DXF and DWF files from the selected folder) It has an option to include subdirectories of selected folder just by clicking checkbox options. All files available in subdirectories are included for conversion. You can set layout and layers or keep them as default. Moving to next step, there you can set output quality by mentioning DPI value. Higher value such as 1200 DPI for better output quality, and this will increase the created .pdf file size. You have options to set page size, layout, output color, output type etc. Moving to the next step you can set background color, pen color, pen width and output pen color. In the next step you need to select output folder to store converted file. You can perform global setting to set up the invisible layers to be turned off for all the drawings, or leave them as default. In the last step, click “Convert Now” button to complete conversion process.
It supports every version of DWG/DXF files released so far namely R2.5/2.6, R9, R10, R12, R13, R14, R2000/2002, R2004/2005/2006, 2007, 2008, 2009 formats.
Overall: Utility is nicely designed; you can create a single merged PDF file from several DWG files or create an individual PDF file for each DWG file selected.
