Windows 10: creating stamps in Adobe Acrobat using AutoCAD DWG files--new C++ download file needed

I need to create a stamp in Acrobat using a dwg file from AutoCAD, which I have done many times. I am now getting an error that I need to download the 'Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package, and create a feature-specific registry key on Windows to enable AutoCAD to PDF conversion as follows:'. Unfortunately the link to Microsoft provided by Adobe https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=5555. does not contain the file anymore. Does anyone know where I can get it from Microsoft?

Converting PDF to AutoCAD DWG

I have two programs at my disposal that I've been using to convert PDFs into DWG files and things have been working nicely, PDF to DWG Convert and Print2Cad. I had 2 PDFs today that were not converting for some reason. These PDFs were smaller in file size, but still pretty clear so I'm not sure what the problem might be. If anyone would like to toy around with one I uploaded the PDF.

Converting PDFs to DWGs saves me worlds of time considering I'm not very good with AutoCAD. If I can't convert this file, I have to go into the stock DWG file we have here and manually make the changes from the PDF. If anyone could help me I would be hugely appreciative.

As for the actual problem, when I select the PDF to convert, it's convert them and creating a tiny 18KB DWG file with nothing in it. I'm not sure of the reason why, and how and if I can fix it.

 

Convert PDF to AutoCAD DWG?

Occasionally we get sent an AutoCAD drawing for a project and then later on PDF with some changes done to the drawing. Were expected to go into AutoCAD and make the changes to make the DWG reflect the PDF sent to us. I started toying around with a PDF to DWG converter today but encountered a few issues with it. I should also mention that I am an AutoCAD novice at best and still have much learning to do.

Anyway, perhaps the biggest problem is the converted DWG feels...sluggish, while moving the mouse around in Model view compared to a natural DWG. I'm not sure why I'm having this lag issue, the converted DWG file is about 4-6 MB, which I thought was in the realm of normalcy.

Anyway, the program I'm using is from AutoDWG and is called "PDF to DWG Converter", I'm not sure if there is a better program out there or not. Also I'm using AutoCAD 2011. I'm far from an AutoCAD artist and looking for a simpler way to get the updated DWG files we need from these PDFs. Some of the changes take a lot of time to make, others seem complicated and currently undoable for me.

 

Opening .dwg files

It is not a Windows file.

You will have to make the choice of what you want to use.

Use 3rd party programs at your own risk

DWG File Extension - What is a .dwg file and how do I open it?

A DWG file is a database of 2D or 3D drawings created with AutoCAD, a professional
CAD program. It contains vector image data and
metadata that describes the contents of the file. DWG files are related to
.DXF files, which are ASCII versions of DWG files.

DWG files can be viewed on Windows using Autodesk's free DWG TrueView program. They may also be opened by other third-party applications that support the DWG format.
