ADO Revisited
-
HI All
Just doing a ruby cleanup and took another look at Didier's automated 2d output script ado.rb
http://www.crai.archi.fr/RubyLibraryDepot/Ruby/en_sections.html
creates both axio (4 views) and ortho (6 views)(pages / scenes) and will save as dxf-dwg-eps-PDF-and images (jpg-png etc)
The big breakthrough for me was to be able to merge the separate PDF files created into a single file as pages.
PDFill PDF Tools (free) at http://www.pdfill.com/ will do this and a bunch more perfectly.
It will also merge 3d PDF right along with any 2d PDFas well.
I checked this using the demo version of SimLab 3d PDF.

Now that's some good news! I've been using PDF Creator as a virtualprinter and it is very handy to merge even different kinds of documents together into a single pdf file but fails on 3D pdf.
Thanks for the info (although would this topic not be better in the Corner bar > Feebies section?)

Hi Gaieus
Sort of an odd ball deal but IMO more script focused but move as you see fit.
The 3d PDF that I used built a much larger file than Al Hart's offering for SU but had better images in all render modes.
The PDF tools are just killer.
Cheers
