I use a combination of Autocad and Sketchup to create architectural models and then do a bit of cleaning up in Paint Shop Pro. I have just come across Paint.Net and am impressed with it and have loaded it up at home. The long and short of it is it is easy for me to get PDF's out of Autocad and it would be handy to directly import it into Paint.Net. PSP and Photoshop both do this. I can go through the extra step of converting PDF to JPG but if I didn't have to I wouldn't. If nobody else is interested in this I will leave the programming gurus alone and they can get on with improving this program with features the majority of people want.
