Pdfclip

Select entities

Selects the PDF underlay to clip.

New boundary

depending on whether or not a boundary already exits the command will produce following prompts:

If no boundary exists you are prompted:

Enter PDF clipping type [Polygonal/Rectangular] <Rectangular>: - type P or R.

If a boundary already exists you are prompted:

Delete old boundary? [Yes/No] - type Y or N.

This option replaces the existing clipping boundary with a new one. Please note that the command will only continue (by prompting you to select a new boundary) after the previous boundary is deleted. So typing No at previous prompt will cancel the Pdfclip command.

Polygonal

Creates multi-sided clipping boundaries; prompts you:

Start of polyline - pick a point in the drawing, or specify x,y coordinates.

Next point - pick another point in the drawing, or specify x,y coordinates.

Undo/next point - pick another point in the drawing, or specify x,y coordinates.

Undo/next point - pick more points, or press Enter to complete the polygon.

Type U to undo the previous point.

Rectangular

Creates a rectangular clipping boundary; prompts you:

Specify first corner - pick a point in the drawing, or specify x,y coordinates.

Specify opposite corner - pick another point in the drawing, or specify x,y coordinates.

ON

Turns the clipping boundary on.

OFF

Turns the clipping boundary off; all of the PDF underlay is again visible. The clipping boundary is saved though.
