I find a lot when i import other PDFs via shapes to a drawing page, which looks good, and then I take that PDF and put on a planset page, something blacks out a lot of the text and a couple other things, not always tho
Importing PDF Shapes then to plansets

There's something I think is a triangle or box that maybe wraps around the text coming from maybe auto desk, that blacks out the text. I've found it is called a triangle usually and if I change it's PDF layer and turn that layer off the black out goes away and the text is there, but is not the perfect world, this way

I really only needed to import these as an image for what I was doing with it, which was to drop into a planset.
My method ended up being , on the new drawing page i created, I draw a box on it and adjust the box to 144' wide by 96' tall, which becomes the size of arch D page.
Then with cursor snap on I import the pdf image and snap it to the 144'x96' which puts it to perfect scale.
Other things that I might need to change i bring in as PDF shapes, and i can adjust the drawing.
Otherwise if a drawing doesn't need adjusting the image is OK. Now that the move forward and move back stuff works good, it's not so hard to doctor an imported PDF image.

If I send the pdf to a friend that uses autocad and then he sends it back as a .dwg file and I import file into soft plan and save as soft plan drawing the pdf drawing or doc note works as if I redrew the original but without the hassle of me redrawing pdf.
Hope this make sense as I sometime ramble. Anybody else have this problem with pdf''s or doc notes
