HEY GS, what the heck is the problem? Why can't we get PDF file into PM 9.0. Are you guys ever going to implement this much needed feature?
PDF format is ubiquitous, let's get moving on doing something about or I'll move off of Graphisoft. MadThe thing you have to realize is that Adobe charges manufacturers a pretty large amount of money t be able to import PDFs. Is it worth adding $100 or more to the cost of the next version to have this?

PDF is supposed a secure format for reliable and consistent printing, if we were able to place & or edit / crop pdf files it would no longer be a secure format, and for all intents and purposes we may as well distribute a dwg / ifc etc.
If you want to print pdf's do it from acrobat, if you need drawing info to include in your drawings get it from its author in a format that can be used in ArchiCAD.
PDF helps us keep the copyright to our drawings, we should not be seeking to dilute the security of this format.

I just spent that much time cleaning up shifted text and lines in importing construction notes from Excel into Plotmaker.

If not.... then I hope you enjoy whatever you switch to.
