You can't without the width and thickness of the item - board feet is a volume measurement, linear feet is a linear measurement. 12 board feet are one cubic foot.

To convert board feet to lineal feet, divide the total board feet by the board's thickness in feet. For example, if you have 100 board feet of lumber that is 1 inch thick, you would divide 100 by 1, which equals 100 lineal feet.

A pound is a unit of mass. A linear foot is a unit of length. The two units are therefore incompatible.
