PDF to CAD Conversion Questions


             Thank you for considering our services for converting your architectural PDF drawings to CAD format. We would like to provide you with some information on how producing simple drawings can help to save on cost and delivery time. By simplifying the drawings, we can reduce the time and effort required to convert them to CAD format. This means that we can deliver the final CAD files to you more quickly, which could help to speed up your project timeline. Additionally, by reducing the complexity of the drawings, we can also reduce the cost of the project, making it more cost-effective for you.

Of course, we understand that not all drawings can be simplified. We will work with you to determine which drawings can be simplified and which ones need to be more detailed. We will also ensure that any simplifications made to the drawings will not compromise their accuracy or quality. ​As you will notice working with us, we are committed to providing you with high-quality CAD drawings that meet your specific needs and requirements.

    Please fill the questionnaire for ​Architectural Drawings PDF to CAD conversion 






    Please let us know by when would you need the Final CAD files? If the schedule is flexible, a lower rate can be proposed.

    Knowing your budget is essential for creating the best PDF to CAD conversion that meets your needs while staying within your budget.

    Understanding the required final CAD drawing output, from simple to highly detailed, is important. The complexity of the conversion is a major factor that affects the cost of a project or service. For instance, some clients may only require line work, which significantly lowers the overall cost, whereas others may require all the readable details, which significantly raises the cost.

    Please let us know if all the elements in the PDF necessary or are some of them irrelevant? The more complex the PDFs are, the more difficult and time-consuming it will be to convert them to CAD format. Cost will also be considered depending on whether the PDF is a scanned image or a native PDF file. We need to know if it is a scanned image and if it is OCR (optical character recognition), as this is needed to convert text to editable text.
    In addition, the more complex drawings may require more revisions and corrections to ensure that they are accurate and error-free. This means that additional time and effort will need to be invested in the project, which will increase the cost.




    Thank you for your consideration, and we look forward to working with you.

Here are a few methods for simplifying architectural drawings:
​
  1. Reduce the level of detail: Complex drawings often have a lot of intricate details that may not be necessary for the CAD version. By reducing the level of detail, such as simplifying the shapes or removing unnecessary annotations, it can significantly reduce the complexity of the drawing and make it easier to convert.
  2. Identify the necessary details: To simplify a drawing, it's important to identify which details are essential to the design and which ones can be removed. For example, annotations and callouts that are not critical to the design could be eliminated, while the overall geometry of the drawing remains intact.
  3. Eliminate unnecessary lines: One of the easiest ways to simplify a drawing is to eliminate unnecessary lines. This includes lines that don't add value to the design or can be easily inferred from the context. For example, if a wall is shown in elevation, then the individual bricks or blocks may not be necessary to show in the drawing.
  4. Use simple line weights and hatch patterns: Using a simple line weight and hatch pattern can help simplify the drawing and make it easier to read. This can also reduce the time and effort required to convert the drawing to CAD format.
  5. Use simple symbols and fonts: Simplifying the symbols and fonts used in the drawing can make it easier to read and understand. This can also help to reduce the complexity of the drawing and make it easier to convert to CAD format.
  6. Eliminate duplicate information: In some cases, architectural drawings may contain duplicate information, such as repeated details or annotations. By eliminating this duplicate information, the drawing can be simplified and made more efficient.

        Overall, simplifying architectural drawings is an effective way to reduce the complexity and cost of converting them to CAD format. By removing unnecessary details and simplifying the design, the drawings can be converted more quickly and cost-effectively, without sacrificing accuracy or quality.
