Acrobat "Lines Merge" adjustments for PDF created from AutoCAD

Steps to adjust Acrobat Line Merge settings for PDF creation from AutoCAD

I've was recently reading on a few competitors web sites that Acrobat can not do Lines Merge and Lines Overwrite when publishing PDF from AutoCAD.  Well this is false and we've put together step by step instructions on how this setting can be adjusted for PDF being created from AutoCAD using Acrobat 8 Professional, there is a link to a sample DWG file and the resulting variations in PDF output depending on what setting is chosen (Lines Merge or Lines Overwrite).  This isn't currently documented as part of the Acrobat 8 Pro help files, so we're providing this a tip and trick for all of you out there, enjoy.
