Hi Layloo459,

You would need acrobat DC in order to convert dwg files to pdf .

You can also refer this link : https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/supported-file-formats-acrobat-reader.html

Let us know if you need any further help.

Regards

Sarojini

Hello Sarojini:

I upgraded my subscription to acrobat DC and when I click on “Create PDF”, it shows that conversion of dwg files are still not supported.

What should I do nbow?

Download QCAD to open DWG files and then print them to PDF format.

QCAD is open source - i.e. free.

Good luck.

Hi Saroniji,

I just pulled out a dwg and into a PDF via Acrobat DC Pro and it converted it into lines of text, no drawing. I did this on a Mac with High Sierra.

Apparently Acrobat cannot convert DWG to PDF. I resorted to simply asking my client for a PDF since Acrobat cannot convert the file.
