You might have to contact Autodesk and ask them about that but I doubt they have an option. You will probably have to solve it the same way we did for PDF files. Do the local drafts checkout, make your changes, and then check it back in again. Thanks, Paul Liebrand Chandra,

AutoCAD also does the same thing by deleting the original and creating a new file thus loosing SharePoint MetaData. Is there a way to stop this behaviour in AutoCAD, any suggestions?

It is unfortunate it works this way. But for once, this is not a Microsoft problem -- Adobe needs to resolve this issue. Yes. It is unfortunate it works this way.

I followed this blog post --LINK REMOVED DUE TO MALWARE NOTICE-- But whenever I go to edit the PDF I get an error saying "A windows sharepoint services compatible application could not be found." Acrobat 9 is installed on the client machine. Any ideas? I was wondering how you were able to get the “Edit with Acrobat” to work. I followed this blog post

The "Send To > Other Destination" itself is not designed to copy the metadata. However, it works with Office documents because the metadata is stored inside the documents custom properties. If the destination library has the same metadata fields as the Office document being copied, SharePoint will suck that information in. Correct.
