Can I import a vector PDF into OS such that I can use the geometry

I have an accurate vector 2D PDF file which I wish to get into a sketch within a part studio for further cad development.
Is this possible.
Help and Google have failed me so far.
I can get the pdf artwork imported into OS just fine as its own entity, but I can't see how I can then move that geometry into a part studio sketch without manually tracing over it?

If you can use some other software (possibly illustrator) to export the vector lines to .dxf you maybe get it in.5 -
