| Summary | 0000261: Use pdf as background | ||||
| Description | In many cases i would like to update a existing schematic of a customer machine or building installation. In those cases i get a exported or scanned pdf with the original schematic and would like to add some plc io pins or a new coil with contact or similar. To avoid building up the whole schematic with over 200 pages or something in qelectrotech i would like to import the original schematic as background for the foils and use some white areas to remove original contacts or something and add own components later. | ||||

Imported PDF not but you can convert your PDF to image: https://superuser.com/questions/185880/how-to-convert-a-pdf-document-to-png |

Yes, i saw that image import. But with this image import i have to import every image one by one. Some kind of import assistant to create the pages in schematic would be useful |

|
One more point on this: When i add the original pdf as image only i am not able to select text on this anymore. This is useful when i got the original pdf as export from other cad system. When importing something like this it might help to get option to remove text and items from this import |

A workaround is to convert the PDF file into DXF files, and then convert these DXFs into QET elements elmt ... https://qelectrotech.org/forum/viewtopic.php?pid=9882#p9882 |
