I am creating user documentation from a .step file and I am showing a component turning like a screwdriver. Does anyone know how to import a JPEG of an arrow into an Acrobat 3D u3d file so I can show the direction it is turning? I tried merging a JPEG into a .step file, but it doesn't work and I can't find any other way to create elements like arrows, lines, boxes, circles, etc. in the actual application itself.
Anyone have any experience with this?
Do not know if this will answer your question but....
You can try to use the 'stamps' tools from Acrobat 3D 8 (A3D8) :
the main idea is to create a 'custom stamp' with your jpeg.
Go to :
Tools -> comment & markup->Stamps->create custom stamp-> select an image (extension jpg) then put the new stamp in a category (Dynamic,Sign here or Standard business)Once the new stamp is created, you will find it the category you have choosen
-> tools->comment & markup->Stamps-> then choose dynamic or sign here or standard businessthen apply your stamp on your document (it will be stored as 'comment.view').
Hope this will be helpful
