I have old PDF document (image of a map), and I want to import it into Visio to edit/update it. What is the basic workflow to follow. Attached is sample PDF. Is there a way to trace the lines/shapes automatically and make them editable Visio files? I have the ability to convert PDF to any file. Sample PDF Image on the PDF page: Update: Understood. The end product is that I am trying to create the Map that is originally in the format of .CRW (Corel Draw) as seen above and create the end product like this map.
. The new map used visio to create - just trying to find out workflow how to get from the first crappy map to the version that is cleaned in visio - oh yea there are over 200 maps so trying to figure a streamlined process
Just to note, its a legitimate pdf, of an old map - did a quick check with linux and virustotal virustotal.com/en/file/…
