PDF - Recommendation

[Zdenko]

asking the forum for recommended PDF software to use in conjunction with AC27. my experience has been using Bluebeam with Civil3D and found it extremely helpful. I have multiple PDF documents that contain many lines of text and would like to use the PDF software to select text and copy over to AC27. the "preview" option from Apple stinks and is a pain in the rear! the PDF documents have been imported into AC27 to test the "explode into current view" but leaves a blood bath of inconsistent text lines and fonts and takes way too much time to clean up.

we are considering of using the Adobe platform since Bluebeam is not supported by Apple.

Operating system used: Mac Intel-based Sonoma 14.4.1

While a bit of a roundabout approach, I will sometimes use the text recognition feature of the iPhone camera, copy the clipboard, paste it into note temporarily and then airdrop it to my macbook.  It seems to handle large amounts of text surprisingly well.

here i thought we were the only ones to come up with that idea! 🙂

if it was a one off would not complain but unfortunately not a solution for our needs...
