Purpose: Create a PDF of the DWG file

Note: Create a complete merged PDF of the DWG file
Processing mode: Works on the active DWG (one file at a time).

This module generates a single, ready-to-send PDF containing all the DWG layouts (all Paper Space tabs, in the correct order).
The plugin prints each layout to PDF, then merges them into one document, automatically named like your DWG. The drawing is not modified.

  1. Opening the DWG

    The software opens the DWG file to export.
    No manual preparation is required.

    Automatic opening of the DWG before generating the PDF
    The active DWG is handled by the tool.

  2. Retrieving layouts

    The plugin reads the list of all layouts (Paper Space) in the DWG in the exact order defined in AutoCAD.
    This order will be preserved in the final PDF.

    Each layout is prepared for PDF printing.

  3. Generate PDF pages and merge pages into a single PDF

    The software creates a PDF for each layout. All generated PDF pages are then merged into a single document.

    Merging all pages into a single PDF in the correct order

The AutoCAD layout order is preserved in the final PDF. You get a single multi-page PDF, clean and orderly.

  1. PDF name and location

    The final PDF is saved in the same location as the DWG.
    Its name is automatically based on the DWG name

project_plan.dwg → project_plan.pdf.

No need to choose a name: it’s generated for you.

  1. DWG unchanged + summary

    The DWG is not modified by the operation.
    A final message summarizes the creation of the merged PDF
    and where it was saved.

    Automatic saving of the merged PDF next to the DWG
    Your DWG remains intact. The PDF is ready to be sent.
