Introduction Adobe Reader is an International Organization for Standardization (ISO) standard that enables any User to share 3D design information without the native CAD geometry or expensive CAD translators. Users can review and add measurements and comments, and reply to comments directly in the PDF file. All users throughout the manufacturing supply chain can streamline 3D CAD data without using high end CAD applications. High-quality 3D content created from professional 3D CAD software is embedded in PDF files allowing Users to view and interact with 3D models. These workshops will navigate you through the Adobe Reader 3D work environment offering easy access to tools you will need most often as you work with PDF files. This training material is designed for you to learn at your own pace the fundamental concepts and features you’ll need for Adobe Reader 3D. The lessons in this book offer step-by-step instructions in the use of software following a process driven orientation. Although each lesson provides instructions in a sequential order, there is room for exploring and experimenting on your own. You can follow the book from start to finish or do only the steps that match your interest and needs.
