Hello,
An engineer created a set of 3D drawings in AutoCAD. He then put those drawings into Adobe PDF files and sent them to me. I want to reduce the drawings in size and get them into a Word document.
The problem is that the drawings are quite large in their Actual Size. When I reduce the PDF in Adobe Reader and paste into Word, there are odd artifacts in the text part of the drawings. Specifically, the capital letter "I" comes out large and bold compared to the rest of the text.
Similarly, when I copy and paste from PDF to Photoshop, I get the same artifacts.
Does anyone know why the text is showing this odd behavior? Is there a way to go from a large PDF drawing to Photoshop or directly to Word without distorting the text?
Thanks a lot,
Bob
