Otherwise you will have to trace it as cegaton mentioned, either in a vector graphics application (like Inkscape or Illustrator), or directly in Blender | |
| Nov 7, 2016 at 16:33 | comment | added | user1853 | You need to convert the pdf to a format that blender can read first. I suggest that you trace it in illustrator or inkscape and save it as an SVG file. Then you can import that into blender. The scaling you'll have to do manually. | |
