Does R14 support the Acrobat plug-in to make pdf's?

    I am guessing no, but I would like confirmation. I have a copy of R2000
    that does show the PDF icons in the Autocad toolbar, but they don't appear
    in the R14 toolbar. Any ideas?.

    Also, when I make a pdf in 2000, the image is all white, no lines. I have
    to cut and past the .dwg image into a Word document, and then create a .pdf
    from there to get a workaround. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? TIA.

    You can use the Acrobat PDF printer with any Windows application, including
    R14. You don't need the Adobe icons to set up the PDF "Printer" as a System
    Printer.

    You can control the output of R2000 the same way. Once it's set up as a
    System Printer in 2000, just use the AutoCAD print/plot dialog to set up
    your PDF "sheet" exactly the way you want it. Ignore the Adobe toolbar.

    PDF995 is great and FREE. I had to create my first pdf the other day, the
    only thing i had to do was change the drawing to black and white, also set
    the paper size to A1 and it creates a very detailed pdf, I am quite
    impressed with it. As for whether or not it works in r14 you'll have to try
    it, although I seem to remember some I know doing the exact same thing in
    r14 and it worked fine.
