Can anyone tell me if its possible to convert a PDF file into a .DWG file for 2002? If it is possible how do you do it?

Thank you

There has been a lot of discussion of the newest Acrobat's compatibility with AutoCAD but I believe that it does not support exporting AutoCAD files out of PDF. It will only import and control them. Someone correct me if I am mistaken.

First zoom in on the PDF image to see if it is a vector or raster image. Raster images will have a bunch of dots making up a line. A vector image will be really clean. If it is a vector image open the PDF in Adobe Illustrator and save as a Autocad DWG drawing.
