Converts your CAD/CAM files to PDF format.
3D designing, be it
CAD (
Computer Aided Design) or
CAM (
Computer Aided Manufacturing), has various rather clear exponents, like
AutoCAD and
ArchiCAD, but
Adobe Acrobat 3D also has a piece of the cake and a market that is has to cover. Its job is to
distribute 3D designs and to do so it makes use of the most standardized file format when it comes to distributing documents, the
PDF.
The interface used by
Adobe Acrobat 3D is very similar to that used by Adobe Acrobat Professional, thus making it very easy to handle for those users that already dominate the Adobe document creator and editor. The purpose of this software is to integrate 3D designs into PDF documents created using Adobe Acrobat, something that can work out being extremely useful due to the fact that not all people have a
CAD/CAM viewer, but the vast majority have a PDF viewer.
The
PDF standard includes some functions that are focused towards integrating 3D designs into it and with
Adobe Acrobat 3D it will be possible to make the most of them.
One of the most interesting features is the one that allows the possibility to
reduce the size of any 3D design when it comes to integrating in the PDF to make sure that it can be easily manipulated.
