Version 3.1 of PROSTEP PDF Generator 3D now Available

Numerous processes and functions have been optimized in the new version 3.1 of PROSTEP PDF Generator 3D and quality further improved. Over 75 different points were revised in order to offer users an even more secure solution that provides an even higher level of quality.

PDF Generator 3D - in combination with Adobe® Reader® XI - now also supports the association of product manufacturing information (PMI) and 3D objects, referred to as "semantic PMI".

The list of supported CAD systems is also getting longer. As of version 3.1, the solution supports the new system versions of Dassault Systèmes CATIA V5 and CATIA V6 as well as Siemens PLM Software´s Solid Edge.

One highlight is certainly the support of semantic PMI, an extremely useful function for cases in which a 3D PDF is to replace 2D drawings. Adobe Reader version XI supports the association of PMI objects with 3D surfaces within the framework of semantic PMI – including highlighting functionality. This enables the simple visual assignment of 3D annotations to geometry objects.
