PDFSHXTEXT — PDF SHX Text
Converts the SHX-font geometry of a PDF into text (notice).
- Command:
PDFSHXTEXT· Global name:_PDFSHXTEXT
Converts the SHX-font geometry of an imported PDF into text, like AutoCAD PDFSHXTEXT (minimal scope).
Usage
Enter PDFSHXTEXT and select the geometry.
Notes
- AutoCAD recognises letters that a PDF carries drawn with SHX fonts (as strokes) and turns them into text. LinceCAD does not do that recognition: whatever you select stays the same and the command line explains it.
- Real PDF text already arrives as TEXT with PDFIMPORT, and the text of a raster underlay is read with OCRIMAGE.
- INSERTPDFSHXTEXT does not exist in AutoCAD 2027.
