Is there any option to export a 3D PDF to a format that can be imported into SOLIDWORKS? I've an assembly I need to work on but input data is available only in 3D PDF format. I know I can do the measurement in 3d PDF but that is very time consuming. 

Any pointers or guidance will be helpful. Thank you in advance.

Are you able to convert the PDF to a step or stl file from the pdf viewer?
I think that's what I did one time. I cannot remember the program I used though.

I could not find an option to do that.

Tried it but unfortunately it didn't worked and gave error that "File is not supported"

Thanks anyway for your help

Provided the 3D PDF has been written with precise PRC data and not just facets Adobe Acrobat / Tetra4D can export a STEP from the PDF. We do this occasionally to get 3D PDF into Solidworks.
