      I know there is the sketchup viewer which you can get people to download and install, but is there a way to make a self viewable file?

      I'm thinking an emailable version for smaller stuff and something on a CD for larger projects.

      Eventually I would like to produce a model of a cruise ship and be able to tour through it without having to install any software.

        Hi,

        There are a couple of 3d to PDF plugins. Simlab Composer is pretty good with it able to turn scenes into views. There's a free trial too

        Download the free D'oh Book for SketchUp πŸ“–

          Thanks rclub24, that looks very interesting.

          I'm downloading the trial now to give it a whirl.

            eDrawing for Sketchup works great, sends as zip or exe; rotate, zoom bla bla;
            Is 99 dollars but I received free version somehow on't remember how or where.
