We are using Ghostscript with GSView (http://pages.cs.wisc.edu/
~ghost/) and pstoedit (http://www.pstoedit.net/pstoedit) to convert
PDF files into editable AutoCAD drawings. It's free, and it works very
nicely.
My problem is that everything in the drawing needs to be exploded
after converting to .DXF, as the individual lines look doubled (or
boxed?). I am not an AutoCAD expert, but I can give you screenshots of
what it looks like.
This is the drawing straight out of pstoedit's convert to vector, and
using the dxf (not dxf_s) setting. http://i36.tinypic.com/m7dgk3.jpg
This is what the drawing should look like, and it looks like this
after selecting all and exploding. http://i35.tinypic.com/ehkis4.jpg
Is there a way to automate this explode task? Can I set up GhostScript
and pstoedit so that it will produce a result that does not need to be
exploded? Obviously, this would save the drafters some time.
