Quite often, in engineering industry in particular, you have partners and collaborators who need to look at drawings. While they need to see drawing they may not need to make any changes to them. Thus there would not be any need to use AutoCAD at all. This converter can be useful in converting a batch of such files quickly into PDF documents. This being a standalone utility, there is no need to use AutoCAD at all.
The batch converter interface makes it easy to gather a batch of files to be converted. The controls available make it easy to gather the files. You decide the format, if DWG or DXF files are to be picked up. The utility will let you ask all sub-folders in the selected folder also to be included in the list. Once the list has been finalized you set the output folder and then start the conversion by clicking on the convert button. The utility make sit easy to create bookmarks in the PDF document.
