Extending CAD Beyond Engineering
Doug Halliday has a nice write up on how to better extend your 3D CAD assets outside of engineering and integrate the product development process across the extended enterprise using Acrobat 3D.
While there is definite overlap between Acrobat 3D and other CAD viewers (ie. the ability to distribute 3D geometry and 2D drawings with a no cost viewer), where Acrobat 3D is totally unique is the ability to combine all relevant project information from spreadsheets to proposals to 2D/3D geometry into one unified and archivable document. Doug’s write up goes through a simple how to scenario that makes this clear.
