Only Tetra4D Converter and Adobe Acrobat together allow you to control whether recipients of your 3D PDFs can measure, section, comment on or export 3D data from either Adobe Acrobat or the free Adobe Reader®.

Trust your 3D CAD data conversion to 3D PDF from the source. Tetra4D is Adobe’s exclusive provider of 3D PDF technology, guaranteeing 100% viewing compatibility with Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat—in addition to complying with 3D PDF ISO standards. And because Adobe Reader is installed on 98% of desktops worldwide, anyone who needs to view your 3D data already has all the software they need.

Features & Benefits of Tetra4D Converter

Share CAD Data with Anyone

No need to own or learn to use expensive 3D CAD systems. With Tetra4D Converter you can accurately convert 3D data from the latest versions of CATIA, Pro/E, SOLIDWORKS, Inventor, and all other major CAD applications to 3D PDF directly inside Adobe Acrobat Pro.

 

Translate CAD Data

Export precise geometric 3D CAD data to STEP, IGES, JT, STL, Parasolid and ACIS from all major CAD formats for use in downstream applications.

 

Security Options

Ensure your intellectual property is only opened by the intended recipient with Adobe Acrobat’s password security. Control access to views, and user ability to mark up and export files.

 

Always Viewable in Acrobat Reader

Tetra4D Converter is built using the native technology found in all Acrobat products ensuring 3D content is displayed accurately every time it is opened with Acrobat Reader.

 

Transition from MBD to MBE

Tetra4D Converter provides the tools you need to share Model Based Designs with suppliers, with full support for import of PMI data such as dimensions, tolerances, annotations and intelligent PMI view states.

 

Collaborate with Your Team

Given the ubiquity of Adobe Reader, 3D PDF files can be viewed, commented on and shared by virtually anyone. Creation of views, measurements and sectioning functions make collaboration simple and efficient.

 

Full Representation of CAD Data in a Compressed File

3D PDF’s are up to 97% smaller than the original CAD model enabling easy electronic sharing.
