Hi Forum Readers,
Some one has sent me a PDF file of a circuit diagram.
I want to paste it in to a solidworks drawing.
I tried to cut and paste and tried to drag the pdf and
that did not work. Thank you very much for any suggestions.

You could convert the PDF to a bitmap image (bmp, gif, jpg, tif, wmf, png or psd), and then Insert > Picture
-or-
Use the OLE Insert > Object method.
 
Thank you very much CorBlimeyLimey.
I will try this solution.

Convert the PDF to DXF and insert the DXF as a block. There are many PDF to DXF converters out there.
