tetra4D® Announces Release of 3D PDF Enrichment Products Version 1.6

tetra4D® today announced the latest release of the 3D PDF Enrichment family of products, Version 1.6. 3D PDF Animate™ and 3D PDF Publish™ provide Acrobat users with a set of intuitive animation tools for creating dynamic 3D PDF documents with animated 3D CAD models, along with detailed process descriptions directly within the PDF environment. 3D PDF Compare™ allows users to easily view and track all changes to the content within a 3D PDF, including animation sequences, added or deleted parts, and changes to metadata.

Coming quickly alongside the latest release of tetra4D's flagship product, 3D PDF Converter, Version 3.6, which adds significant new capabilities for publishing 3D model-based definition (MBD) information with Visual Response product manufacturing information (PMI), this release of the Enrichment Products further advances tetra4D's position as the leader in 3D PDF technology.

Joseph Oshman, Manufacturing Engineer at Moog Components Group, commented, "3D PDF Animate completely revolutionized the way Moog Components Group thinks about creating documents, presentations and instructions." Mr. Oshman added, "We use 3D PDF Animate to expedite our process for creating interactive presentations for new product launches using data directly from our designers' 3D models. There are endless uses for this software product since the files are output as PDF."

"We are thrilled to continue to add valuable new capabilities to our products for our customers who use 3D PDF to communicate in 3D outside the CAD system," said Greg Baker, President of tetra4D. "The combined release of all four of our 3D products for Acrobat together will continue the rapid adoption of 3D PDF in the aerospace supply chain, and consequently accelerate the adoption in other manufacturing supply chains as well."
