Printing your AutoCad drawing to a PDF is very easy with novaPDF. Just open your document (File->Open->Browse to your file, select it and click Open) and select the Plot option (File->Plot... or pressing "Ctrl+P").

If you didn’t set novaPDF as your default printer when you installed it, in the Plot Device options window that appears, select novaPDF from the drop-down menu under the Plotter Configuration section.
If novaPDF is the default printer you can skip this step and print your file to PDF by pressing the "Ok" button (after you have selected your printing options).

Next you will be prompted to save your file to a location (if you didn’t select the AutoSave option in novaPDF), so just browse to your desired location and click "Ok" - the PDF will be immediately generated.
