You try Linux PDF-Viewer.inside Linux. iso
If PDFReader.rpm do not have the problem with Zoomin, then yourWin10Pc have a big-problem.

Coder originally posted that if they imported a PDF into the drawing everything ran slow after that. before changing to ......................................................................
You could convert the PDF into tiff usually they are less system dependent.

Of course the drawing will run slow. PDFs are just a container for many different types of stuff (images, postscripts, etc) there could be all sorts of thigs inside that PDF that are slowing down AutoCAD.

I second mhupp's suggestion.

I'm not sure how the WSL will help AutoCAD in this case, d2010. I mean as far as I know, AutoCAD itself is reading the PDF contents; it doesn't use a system viewer does it?

What version of AutoCAD? This has become less of an issue over the years, I think AutoCAD 2019 or 2020 was the first version where this sped up dramatically, 2021 and 2022 further improved speed.
