Tried that Mal,

Most of the "free" ones are trials or free to download but pay to use !
One which appeared truly free set my anti virus into hysterics.
That's when I decided to ask here

Under certain circustances yes, if its a vectorised CAD file thats been pdf converted then yes. I know Adobe CS does it without breaking a sweat, and i think some Apple Mac software does as well.

If its a scanned page of a CAD drawing then no, not without revectoring it anyway.

I don't have the software so I can't do it for you I'm afraid. I'm sure someone will though.

I must admit the way I'd convert would be open the DXF file in a CAD package and then do a print using CutePDF Simples.
