I am using Adobe acrobat 9 pro. How do I create u3d file using Inventor 2010? Thus far i can only save files as a .pdf file. I have tried to use the tools> multimedia>3d tool> through adobe and it would seem that i must find a way to convert my solid model to a u3d file first. I also tried changing the print options in Inventor to a .pdf u3d but i don't see where it will let me print to a .pdf u3d file only gives the option of .pdf.
As the U3D export do not exist within Inventor 2010, there is not solution from Inventor.
"Pdf U3d" stand for : include a U3D "Stream" within the PDF. This not a U3D file only.
This is not an Acrobat issue.
Anyway,
In order to obtain an U3D file The only possible way is to use A3DReviewer that is installed with Acrobat 9 Pro EXTENDED.
Open your Inventor file within A3DReviewer, then go to 'File' 'Export' -> Save as Type -> u3dHope this is helpful
