Is there any option to export a 3D PDF to a format that can be imported into SOLIDWORKS? I've an assembly I need to work on but input data is available only in 3D PDF format. I know I can do the measurement in 3d PDF but that is very time consuming.
Any pointers or guidance will be helpful. Thank you in advance.

Re: Importing 3D PDF into SOLIDWORKS
Are you able to convert the PDF to a step or stl file from the pdf viewer?
I think that's what I did one time. I cannot remember the program I used though.

Re: Importing 3D PDF into SOLIDWORKS
Provided the 3D PDF has been written with precise PRC data and not just facets Adobe Acrobat / Tetra4D can export a STEP from the PDF. We do this occasionally to get 3D PDF into Solidworks.
