QuadriSpace Introduces Publisher3D
QuadriSpaceT, a provider of 3D documentation products, introduced Publisher3DT, a new product designed to simplify the creation of printed, animated and interactive 3D documents.
Publisher3D is an add-on to Notes3DT and provides versatile publishing outputs for documented models. A documented model is a 3D model that includes non-CAD information; documented models can be used to generate complete documentation in a variety of formats.
"This product highlights another way that documented models are used to simplify the creation of 3D documents from 3D design information", stated Brian Roberts, President, "Our products let users associate expert information with 3D designs and then share these files to streamline document creation and improve internal communication."
For technical documents, Publisher3D is an especially powerful product. This wizard-based approach helps users create illustrations faster while improving accuracy and keeping documents up-to-date.
By combining 3D views with text and hyperlinks, quick generate a variety of document types. Publisher3D includes capabilities to create high-resolution images, static web pages with hyperlinks, animated AVIs, interactive Macromedia Flash files, and fully interactive 3D documents.
Use a single software application to rotate, zoom and pan 3D models; create exploded views; choose hidden line render styles; modify part materials; add vector graphics, leaders and photos; and generate high-resolution images. You can also eliminate the need to purchase expensive CAD software for non-CAD users.
Easily organize and reorder your illustrations; associate illustrations with text and hyperlinks; and add related snapshots to the same collection.
Save multiple high-resolution images of your 3D models to a directory for easy use in technical documents.
Publisher3D helps you keep your documentation updated by quickly regenerating documentation when your products' design changes.
In addition to technical documents, Publisher3D can be used to generate static web pages, animations, Flash files or even custom interactive 3D documents. Publisher3D works as part of a complete software suite designed to help companies simplify the creation of 3D documentation and provide an easy transition from print to interactive 3D documentation. Resulting documentation can be used for applications such as engineering documentation, assembly instructions, service and operational procedures, product demonstrations, training manuals and sales presentations.
QuadriSpace Corporation ( http://www.quadrispace.com/ ) provides software that improves the productivity and effectiveness of designers, engineers and those involved in the documentation, publication, and presentation processes.
