The Power of 3D in PDF using Adobe® Reader 7.0™ and Adobe® Acrobat 3D

Adobe released Adobe® Reader 7.0™ in December 2004 and Adobe® Acrobat 3D in January 2006. For the first time, you can easily publish, share, review, and mark up 3D designs using the industry's standard for document communication. To learn more about Acrobat 3D, please go to www.adobe.com/acrobat3d/.

This opens the door to new business value opportunities across the product lifecycle, particularly for manufacturers and users of complex products where 2D illustrations, 3D animations, and photorealistic 3D product images improve the quality of design collaboration, technical publications, training courseware, and marketing communications.

Right Hemisphere Inside

To provide this revolutionary functionality, Adobe licensed Right Hemisphere's Deep View™ technology for Adobe Reader 7 and then licensed, additional 2D and 3D Product Graphics Management technology from Right Hemisphere for Adobe Acrobat 3D.

Value-Added Plug-ins and Complementary PGM Services for Adobe Acrobat 3D

As Adobe's 3D technology partner, Right Hemisphere is well positioned to deliver value-added plug-ins and complementary PGM services along with Adobe Acrobat 3D.

The Right Hemisphere PMI Module allows users to access, display, and publish Product Manufacturing Information (PMI) data from JT and CATIA® v5 files. The Right Hemisphere PDF Publishing Module allows users to easily create, design, and publish highly interactive 3D documents without JavaScript® programming.

Right Hemisphere will continue to develop and deliver additional plug-ins to the Acrobat 3D software as well as make them mutually available for Right Hemisphere's Deep Exploration and Deep Server applications.

Right Hemisphere Deep Server PGM services to Acrobat 3D include:

• event based integration with the CAD/PLM/ERP applications that source 3D designs,
• high volume and large model CAD translation,
• automatic lightweight 3D graphic file optimization,
• automatic 2D and 3D derivative graphics file authoring—such as illustrations, photorealistic images, and interactive animated scenes,
• graphics file management and search capabilities,
• graphics file exporting to over 80 formats.

Right Hemisphere's Applications for 3D in PDF

In addition to Adobe's software, Right Hemisphere also provides applications that allow you to prepare, author, publish in 3D in PDF documents. These include Right Hemisphere's PGM server software, Deep Server™, or client software, Deep Exploration™ CAD Edition.

What if I want to put 3D into Microsoft Office before PDF?

As an alternative path to 3D in PDF, Right Hemisphere's Deep Publish™ or Adobe Acrobat 3D let you insert 3D graphics directly into Microsoft Office applications before publishing in PDF. Once you have your 3D rich Powerpoint™ presentation, Excel™ spreadsheet or Word™ document ready, Deep Publish lets you convert these documents directly to PDF.
