Poot

Hi guys,

I'm trying to import a pdf into sketchup i know this is possible by using inkspace,
and following this tutorial ( http://sketchucation.com/resources/tutorials/intermediate/426-pdf-skp-conversion)

But when i follow this tutorial and import the pdf file into sketchup nothing appears...

Pdf and dxf file in attachment.

What am i doing wrong and how can i fix this?

Thanks in advance,

Sam

As you have a pro version you can reload the DXF result of my post above!

If it is not in vector format just convert PDF to image and import it in SU for manual tracing. You will first have to scale it to original size with Tape measure tool though.

Seems your PDF and DXF are not "vectorized" file!

So first clean your image erase shadows, dash lines etc et the maximum !
then
https://www.vectorizer.io free vectorise on line

so you have svg file format
so Convert it online

so you have a DXF file format reloadable in SketchUp!
Bonne chance!
