Solution Overview
Theorem’s 3D PDF Publisher for CATIA offers a 3D PDF publishing solution for all sizes of organisation. The products and publishing solutions are based on the original Adobe® technology and Dassault Solutions® technology and are therefore fully compatible with Acrobat and CATIA V5.
Dependent upon the nature of your requirement you can decide for yourself which level of solution is best suited to meet the needs of your company. There is a version you can use from inside of CATIA V5 in “save as” mode. A version which can run in batch mode and also be driven from Theorem’s graphical user interface and a full server solution for high volume use.
3D PDF Publisher is suitable for both global organisations and smaller companies, as well as individual departments within large corporations. It is scalable from a single user to thousands of users.
The “save as” solution:
- Is the CATIA V5 3D PDF Publisher plug-in.
