PDF import

What is the best method to import a pdf image into archicad 10? I used the snapshot tool to copy to the clipboard in adobe, then pasted into ac10 but without a great result. Please advise!

I find the easiest way is to just drag the file onto the drawing.

You can also right click with your mouse and select place drawing. Then use the browser window to select the file you want.

Either way you will get the pdf file and not a snapshot.

PS. It is helpful to provide your system information.

Thank you for your quick response. I didn't mention that I have a pdf file with 72 scanned pages, and I need only a few pages. I will give it a try on Monday to see if I am able to drag the file into archicad, and perhaps delete all the sheets I don't need? I will post again if I have any problems. Thanks again!
