Hi, it turned out afterall that DXF is not such a great choice in my case. `pstoedit` is best tool for rapid conversion, but it does not respect polygons present in initial PDF files, but it just samples polygons to very small lines which is such bad outcome.
Evan, or anybody else, can you please link me to SVG DTD that ogr2ogr would understand? The link provided here: http://www.gdal.org/drv_svg.html is dead, and on their (cloudmade) web portal I can find any information about their custom SVG format. I also assume there is no tool that can make initial PDF valid for ogr2ogr.
