Convert PDF to AutoCAD for Free
I can't count how many times I came across a 2D PDF drawing that I wish I can modify slightly. Over the years I looked at many different tools that would aid in turning a stale PDF into something usable. Enter ConvertPDFtoAutoCAD. I like how simple it is and how instant. I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the output dwg file. So, if you're looking for a quick and easy way to turn those PDFs into dwg (or DXF by extension), then give this a shot. Of course, what really sold me on this service is that it's completely free and that's the best price.

CATIA V5 - Simplify Surfaces, then flatten them
more often than not, we get surfaces that are too complex for our needs. This video shows how to take a multifaceted surface and turn it into a simple, easier to deal with element. The rough Offset will do the trick as the standard offset tool does not know how to deal with this type of information. As a bonus, we also flatten the final result and place it into a 2D drawing.
