The support of materials is quite limited in 3D PDF, so although we export as much as we can, the result is still not perfect. That’s because of the 3D PDF format limitations. You may notice that models don’t look exactly the same in Acrobat, as they looked in the source applications. Note that this cannot be applied to tiled or otherwise modified texture mapping. We cut the scene that way, so the maximum artwork resolution does not exceed the Acrobat limits and you end up with full texture quality. In order to fix that, both Boxshot and Origami can cut both the scene and the artwork into pieces, so each artwork fragment is applied to a smaller part of the scene.
This means you end up with a blurry texture if the initial resolution was higher. Besides the lighting and artwork format options, there is a quite important “tiling” option that helps providing higher resolution artwork in Adobe Reader.Īccording to our tests, Adobe Reader limits artwork resolution to about 2048x2048 to match the low–quality hardware. Export Optionsīoth Boxshot and Origami share the same exporting engine, so the 3D PDF properties are the same.
Click Attachments, and select files to attach to the output 3D PDF file.Exactly as with Boxshot, you can configure export options in application settings panel. Select Generate and Attach STEP File to export the model to a STEP file, and attach the STEP file to the output 3D PDF file.Ĭlick Options, and specify the settings for the exported STEP file. 
Select View PDF When Finished to open the output file after the export finishes. Specify a folder to save the output 3D PDF file. You can customize a 3D PDF template delivered with Inventor installation, or create your own 3D PDF templates. The 3D PDF template file specifies elements included in the exported file and their arrangement. If appropriate, change the 3D PDF template file. Only data related to the exported view representations are included in the output 3D PDF file. Select Limit to Entities in the Selected Design View Representations to reduce size of the exported file. Select All Entities to export all components and data available in the model file. Select Low to reduce size of the exported file, and to avoid displaying details in zoomed views. Select High to show all model details when zooming in. Visualization Quality controls quality of mesh used to display model views in the output 3D PDF file. 
When you are satisfied, right-click the view in the browser and choose Save Current Camera. Activate each view you plan to publish and adjust the view orientation and zoom scale as desired. Note: To make sure that the exported views provide the expected results, you should do the following:
