 Is it possible to create a 3D PDF with a border? 
 Any help is appreciated.

&lt;p&gt;Check these 3D PDFs, rotate the models and you&amp;#39;ll see. The one made from 3D view is using the whole A4 sized page, while the other (made from the 2D sheet) has only a rectangular space that perfectly fits the models size.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#39;m not sure it will work this way. How can I attach 3D PDFs or other, not-media-type files in this forum?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: 3D PDF Border</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/339656?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Tue, 22 Sep 2015 10:33:06 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:189f2d4f-aa69-49e3-96b5-c5cf9962f86d</guid><dc:creator>Carl Myhill</dc:creator><description>I am not totally sure I understand, but could it be your referring to the Sheets models border ? If this is the case you could open the sheet model properties and turn off the option &amp;#39; Display Sheet Boundary &amp;#39; before printing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the shape is coming from an element within the file or reference, then may be its possible to turn this level off prior to printing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Also check your print attributes ( From Print Dialog Settings &amp;gt; Print Attributes ) may be your printing a border which is having a bearing. Try toggling off the option &amp;#39; Print border &amp;#39;.&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: 3D PDF Border</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/339504?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Mon, 21 Sep 2015 14:37:15 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:958360b8-4c0e-47f8-8eaf-c5f0d23bae86</guid><dc:creator>Csaba_Szabo</dc:creator><description>If I use this method the PDF has a background coloured &amp;quot;border&amp;quot; around the 3D model. It&amp;#39;s like a 2 dimensional bounding box. If I rotate or move the model it is not showing outside of this border (or gets covereb by it).&lt;br /&gt;
When I created 3D PDF from Model View (=not sheet), this box effect was sized to the View window&amp;#39;s size.&lt;br /&gt;
How can I remove this border, or is it possible to remove it?&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: 3D PDF Border</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/312897?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Mon, 02 Feb 2015 13:33:36 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:441ff23c-c1ee-42ba-b0a7-11b21b184f09</guid><dc:creator>Josh WHEALY</dc:creator><description>Thanks very much&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: 3D PDF Border</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/312891?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Mon, 02 Feb 2015 12:58:28 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:de43916c-a456-4f10-a3e2-c0570e037fcb</guid><dc:creator>Carl Myhill</dc:creator><description>If you reference your 3d design into the 2d sheet, there is an attachment setting &amp;#39; Plot As 3d &amp;#39; (PDF) .

I&amp;#39;m not up to speed with all of the technical terms so I&amp;#39;m not 100% sure if that article answers the question.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Incase of misunderstanding the image below should help.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/19568/3D-PDF-Border.png"&gt;&lt;img src="/resized-image/__size/940x0/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/19568/3531.3D-PDF-Border.png" alt=" " /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#39;d like everything outside of the selected element to print as 2D, like you would normally in a 2D model space, and everything inside the selected element to print as a 3D PDF. Almost like a 3D viewport in a 2D print space.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If that article answers that question then I may have misunderstood the terminology, please correct me if that is the case.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: 3D PDF Border</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/312862?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Mon, 02 Feb 2015 09:29:50 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:6ec7e02a-bfc1-4175-ada5-b46475bcafd7</guid><dc:creator>Dervalcanny</dc:creator><description>Hello,&lt;br /&gt;
