Graphic: Free line weights in the PDF and the selected line weights in the DWG le
The converted DWG will only feature one line weight, which in this case would be
2.11mm, which is an ISO standard line weight.
Our suggestion for this would be to use the scaling factor for line weights. By using this
factor, the user can enlarge or reduce the line weights in the PDF.
Set the factor to 0.10 , as shown in our example above, and the results of the the line
weights will be 0.18, 0.25 and 0.35mm after the conversion.
7.5 Hatch Conversion
When working with PDF, there is not much difference between paths and hatches. PDF
hatches are dened as paths with the annotation “lled”. This increases the load speed
of the PDF le. However, DWG or DXF les may open very slowly when featuring
numerous hatches.
A real hatch in a DWG or DXF le features many additional attributes and qualities.
Therefore a hatch may be a heavy burden for the load speed of a CAD drawing.
