Re: How to handle pdf import properly and feasibly?

Yes, you can import the svg as freecad objects (select "import as geometry"). Of course you need to make sure your svg is made of objects (lines, arcs, etc) and not one big bitmap image...

Re: How to handle pdf import properly and feasibly?

There is a "pdf2svg" utility on linux... I'm not sure how it behaves with CAD files, but it might be interesting to try, if it works well it would be easy to create a pdf importer with it for freecad. But I'm not sure if/how it works on other platforms...

Re: Convert .obj mesh to 2d drawing with dimensions

Well transferring 3D mesh models to 2D arch drawings is a huge operation. Basically you'll want to make sure your meshes are clean, closed and non-manifold in blender, then when importing them into FreeCAD you can turn them easily into solids. 2D views of those solids can then be extracted and expor...

Normally the only differences I saw between the two, is that with pyside all qt strings are also python strings, and ...
