For what I do, Acrobat has the best set of tools as well. I do think quadrispace fills a gap though. Most of the other engineers in my office do not use Acrobat for much beyond viewing. This gives them a quick way to create a document with some instruction on it and communicate the 3D design a little better to the shop or a vendor.<br><br>... and yeah, Acrobat Extended works great as translator huh. :)joshmingsWed, 01 Oct 2008 07:24:54 -0000http://www.solidsmack.com/quadrispace-document3d-3d-pdf-adobe-acrobat/2008-09-30/#comment-2774104Josh, I looked at Qudarispace a few years back but as a user of Adobe Creative Suite software going to Acrobat made more sense. Personally I don't like the Quadrispace Word/Powerpoint like approach to layout - I never use either as I use Indesign or Illustrator and Apple Keynote - it is just to gimmicky. Buts thats a personal opinion.<br><br>For me I'll stick to Acrobat Extended - it opens more file formats, it handles assemblies of all sizes, it lets you export parasolid or STEP (so you can treat it as a low cost CATIA v5 translator - not a lot of people will know that maybe), the flash and flash video tools in 9 are excellent. All in all you get more for your money I think.Kevin QuigleyWed, 01 Oct 2008 06:13:00 -0000
