DWG to PDF & PLT to PDF Converter
Convert AutoCAD, ArchiCAD, Allplan and Revit drawings for building-permit workflows into scale-faithful, archivable PDF/A.
Support for drawings up to 90 metres from AutoCAD, and long-roll PDF/A up to 100 metres for PLT files exported from ArchiCAD/Allplan and Revit RVT sheets.
The web converter accepts ArchiCAD and Allplan drawings as PLT files, and Revit projects as RVT files.
PlotPDFPro is an architecture and engineering drawing conversion platform built to turn AutoCAD DWG drawings and PLT/HPGL/2 files into scale-accurate PDF files.
With the PlotPDFPro AutoCAD add-in, DWG drawings can be converted to PDF from inside AutoCAD itself.
What is PlotPDFPro?
PlotPDFPro brings technical drawing conversion for architects, engineers, project offices and wide-format print centres together in one product family. The web workflow focuses on PLT, HPGL and HPGL/2 files; the AutoCAD add-in focuses on DWG drawings. Revit (RVT) sheets can also be converted to PDF/A.

PLT, HPGL and HPGL/2 technical drawings can be converted on the web into scale-accurate PDF files. The same workflow is used for long-format drawings.
ArchiCAD / Allplan → PLT → PDF/A: ArchiCAD and Allplan drawings are exported as PLT and converted on the web.
Convert your PLT file →Revit (RVT) to PDF/A
Convert Revit (RVT) sheets into one long roll PDF/A, or the sheets you select into one multi-page PDF/A file. Each sheet keeps its own size and view scales.
Sign in to convert; your first Revit conversion is free, later Revit conversions use 1 purchased credit.
Revit to PDF/A →PlotPDF Viewer
PDF / PDF/A and TIFF → fast local viewing, printing and e-signing. Open long roll drawings fast on Windows, save PDF/A copies and sign documents with your e-signature token. Free; your files stay on your computer.
About PlotPDF Viewer →What is preserved in technical drawings
Conversion focuses on keeping the page size and scale of the technical drawing. Supported drawings that contain raster, JPEG or PNG images also keep their visual content in the PDF output.
Files produced with the PDF/A option by the AutoCAD add-in and by web PLT conversion, long roll sheets included, are PDF/A validated with veraPDF (PDF/A-2b).
Who is it for?
- Architecture and engineering teams
- Project offices that share technical drawings
- Wide-format print and reprographics centres that prepare long-format output
