Important!
The PDF line weight may have any user-dened value, for example 0.27mm or
1.675 mm.
Important!
Line weight is only available in DWG or DXF version 2004 and higher. If necessary,
change the target version to 2004 or higher.
Important!
Line weights can also be dened as a hatch in PDF les. We gave this line weight
the name “Line Weight Fake”.
To test your PDF drawing, please follow the steps below: Turn off the line weight view
in the Adobe Reader under “View Line Weights”. If the lines do not appear with line
weight 0.0, then no real line weights exist, but rather hatches displaying line weight.
When converting, it can be difcult to nd the appropriate line weight in DWG or DXF.

In this case the next smallest line weight will be chosen from the table of permitted
DWG line weights.
For Example: This means that a PDF with line weight 2.7mm will be converted into a
DWG with a line weight of 2.5mm.
Another difculty is if multiple PDF lengths exist in the same area.
For example: A PDF features the line weights 1.82, 2.56, 3.56mm.
