Solution Overview

Convert native CAD files with the only authorized 3D products for Adobe Acrobat.  3D PDF Converter™ and the family of 3D PDF CAD Plug-ins  leverage the robust publishing features of Acrobat with the ubiquity of Free Adobe Readerand enables users to convert 3D CAD data into rich, interactive 3D PDF documents that can used as powerful visualization and collaboration assets throughout the entire enterprise and supply chain. 

Enrich 3D PDF documents by combining multiple source information into a single 3D PDF document with 2D and 3D design information for sharing with field service teams, suppliers, vendors, marketing and beyond.  Add animations of 3D CAD models and corresponding work process instructional details for improved communication with all teams who consume design information.

Publish 3D PDFs adding annotations, part attributes, work instructions and more to the embedded 3D CAD model. User-friendly features, ubiquity of free Adobe Reader, and customization options through the use of templates empower teams to replace stagnant time consuming work processes with a variety of automation with extended teams.

Collaborate in 3D using FREE Adobe Reader to share dynamic 3D PDF documents equipped with 3D CAD models and all of its valuable data. Easily share annotations, mark-ups and more to collaborate among cross-functional groups.  Create 3D PDF documents in which changes to parts of the 3D model can be automatically updated and tracked throughout the lifecycle of a product. Using 3D PDF to collaborate with extended teams can accelerate design review processes within the enterprise and supply chain. Export to neutral 3D file formats directly from a PDF document and have the confidence of knowing that all your 3D PDF documents meet ISO PDF/E standard for the exchange of 2D & 3D engineering information.

Integrate a 3D model-based workflow beyond engineering and use 3D PDF to create automated processes for sharing valuable data from 3D models enterprise-wide and with supply chain partners. Empower teams to reduced time to market, production cost, process duplication, AND accelerate the reuse of valuable 3D CAD data.   From engineering and product design to purchasing and marketing, a fully integrated 3D PDF solution can improve efficiencies and deliver measurable ROI at multiple stages of the product lifecycle, while reducing IT complexity and costs.

3D PDF solutions can be configured with design aesthetics and user-interface features that are consistent with a specific organization’s current internal systems and software applications. Avoid adoption issues while implementing PDF automated processes, the most widely used format in the world.
