Does Autodesk support a pdf printer driver?

This might work for you.

I have used this program a little with MS Word and it has worked perfectly. It just installs as a pseudo printer driver, so any program can create a pdf file just as if you were printing. Not sure how it might work with Autocad but it is free so you won't be out much for trying.

Both the pdf printdriver from

and the one that comes with scansoft's paperport work very well with Autocad LT 2005 (Tested before posting). Please keep in mind that if you have a detailed drawing that you are sending to someone make sure that they have a plotter at their end. If they print it out on 8.5 x 11 or A4 it will still be hard to read. PDFs are a great way to share without giving away the actual file. Also, you may want to check out one like win2pdf by who I do not remember, but this one allows you to password protect the file on a couple of different levels. Like one to open the file, one to print the file, etc. This could give even more security to your file and control.
