Giving a 3D Model to non-technical people

Hello,

Is there some method other than pdf whereby I can give a 3D model to somebody without them having to install a viewer ?

I have made a model for an architect and assured him he would be able to examine it in a 3D pdf.

Unfortunately the 3D pdf is really attrocious. Mainly the colours are all wrong and curved solids have become faceted.

The sad thing is that a 2D version made with the same driver looks great (no faceting)

Can the accuracy of a pdf be altered (especially wrt curves) ?

Thanks

  • If your giving it to as you said an architect  then I would hardly call them non technical... but in any case just export to DWG  autocad  most Architects use autocad or archicad  which can import  autocad DWG... and it will stay 3d so problem solved yeah?

    Alternatley ask them what package they use for drawings and ask what formats they have available in the import options  then see what you can match in export from microstation then export  to the common format and your done...
