I need to print a PDF picture of a machine toolpath to send out to our shop with our orders

Maybe you can copy it as a picture from within Adobe's reader.

Select the Graphics Icon in Reader.
Lasso your "picture"
Edit|copy
back to excel and edit|paste

In simple tests, I had to do each pdf page one at a time. And it helped if I
copied from a zoom that was readable--if I blew up the picture within excel, it
looked very bad.
