The program provides the following options for publishing a project:
When you publish to PDF you have an option to substitute TrueType fonts in text objects that use SHX fonts.
Check the option Substitute TrueType fonts for SHX fonts to substitute TrueType fonts for SHX fonts. This substitution is used for the PDF output and does not change the font used on the drawing. The font mapping file, acade.fmp, controls which TrueType font is substituted for a particular SHX font. The default location for acade.fmp is C:\Users\{username}\AppData\Roaming\Autodesk\AutoCAD Electrical {version}\{release}\{country code}\Support\. Edit this file with a text editor to modify the font mapping.
The Truetype font may not be an exact match for the SHX font and can look slightly different in the PDF output. TrueType fonts are not substituted for Big Fonts.
Publishing to PDF provides options for including hyperlinks between related components and bookmarks when publishing to a multi-sheet file.
If you select to include bookmarks, the following are included in the PDF:
If you select to include hyperlinks between related components, the following links are added:

Schematic parent tag | Panel footprint |
Panel footprint graphics | Schematic parent |
Schematic child tag | Schematic parent |
Schematic PLC tag | Panel footprint |
Panel PLC footprint graphics | Parent or stand-alone schematic PLC |
One-line component tag | Schematic parent |
Cross-reference text on parent | Child specific to cross-reference text selected |

The Zoom factor controls how close the PDF file is zoomed in when you click a hyperlink and are taken to the corresponding object. The zoom factor is calculated as a percentage of the object's size. A Zoom factor value of 50 means the object is shown at half its PDF object size. A zoom factor value of 100 means the object fills the PDF screen. Enter an integer from 1 through 100.
The AutoCAD publish options also provide options to include hyperlinks and bookmarks.
