PDF layers not showing in Illustrator
i have hundreds of vector-based pdf files exported archicad need batch convert svg using illustrator. problem there number of shapes draftsman has included in special layer in archicad not coming through illustrator.
when open pdf files in acrobat , turn on layers panel, can see various layers archicad including 1 containing special shapes. when open pdf file in illustrator (latest version 2017), 1 layer called "layer 1" objects in it. why doesn't illustrator display layers acrobat able do?
i need able rid of damn clipping masks come pdf files. programmatically identify closed shapes when inside clipping mask, our routines can't find them.
thanks in advance.
