PDF plans from Architect

[GPack]

Hi,
I've received some plans from an architect for a new build.
He has asked my to draw the location of points on an A1 pdf document that has be printed off.
Any idea how I might do this digitally rather than writing on the actual document? Anyone else do this?

Thanks for your help.

Architects are always looking to build a relationship with good contractors and if a good job is done will always put a recommendation forward to the client.

Won't be if as someone suggested to send back with a pair of B****ks marked on his drawing.

i dont need the goodwill of architects to survive, vice versa i think you will find!

its the architects job to mark up the drawings, whats the guy gonna do when the customers start moaning "that wasnt supposed to be there" its going to be the sparkies liability to fix at his own cost

some jobs arent worth the hassle, and this is one of them.

Dear God what a complete over-reaction.

Dear God what a complete over-reaction.

i dont mind doing favours for EXISTING relationships with clients, im not going to waste my time on the offchance that someone on a high horse thinks they have me over a barrel to do their jobs for them

if you call up the architect to help you pull in some cables what do you reckon they would say?

someone must be paying for the building, they should be deciding what/where electrical points go

this is the job description for an architect

Architects work in the construction industry designing new buildings, restoring and conserving old buildings and developing new ways of using existing buildings. They are involved in construction projects from the earliest stages right through to completion. ... preparing and presenting design proposals to clients

Recent versions of Microsoft Word can open PDFs. Depending how they have been created though will depend on how much control you have over the individual elements and text within them. Worth a try.
