Publishing software shrinks 3D design data
The latest publishing applications from Lattice3D include a breakthrough in the ability to collaborate, share and publish large complex 3D designs for immediate use throughout an enterprise.
The lightweight XVL format allows 3D data to be used throughout the product lifecycle.
Acrobat 3D Version 8 enables virtually any 3D CAD file to be delivered as a convenient PDF document.
The new plug-in by Lattice provides users the convenience of PDF distribution with the power to edit the data in Lattice's XVL-based applications, wherein users can produce 3D process animations, training manuals, customer documentation, engineering process documents and more.
"The possibilities that this plug-in creates for manufacturers to really be able to communicate, use, and collaborate with 3D data are endless".
"We are looking forward to seeing what our customers achieve with this tool", says Bill Barnes, GM, Lattice Technology.
"The plug-in is bidirectional, which means data can both export from and import into Acrobat 3D.
PDF is one of the communication tools of choice for our users".
"XVL applications can manipulate and enhance 3D data into animations, combine it with other part data, and create stunning 'how-to' documents, which can then be optionally imported back into 3D PDF for easy distribution".
"This makes for a highly enhanced workflow, greater potential use of 3D data downstream, and improved productivity".
The new bidirectional translation supports shape, product structure information, colour and attributes like part name and designer material.
In order to use the new plug-in, Acrobat 3D Version 8 is required. Request a free brochure from Lattice Technology ...
