thats priceless. too much time at my desk this week - time to go home!
I actually tried to do that via the Drawing Tool and all the PDF files were greyed out. Being tired and prone to jumping to conclusions I assumed that as the AC browser was giving me a PDF icon, I assumed it recognised them as PDFs and that therefore PDF Import was still not available (now i remember it being in the New Features guide).
However what I hadn't checked was that PDF was in the format types available ... I kinda assumed that if I had
All Available Types
active it would pick them up if it could ... so i never pulled down that menu.
You made me go back and look again. It seems that the engineer has thrown in an extra
full stop
in the document name, which as it was truncated I never saw:
S4053 6z Lot 13 ABSA Thermal performance v6.1 Rev B spec block.pdf
So now knowing it is supposed to work I figure that extra dot must be causing AC headaches, despite it aparently knowing it was a PDF.
And that was the problem. I copied and renamed the file and it picked it up (see attached showing original and renamed files via AC browser).
Anyway .... my bad. Even though GS track record on these things does lend itself to making these assumptions I should have asked again first.
I apologise. Thanks for giving us direct PDF links!
cheers,
