Interactive 3D PDF

I have posted a RPS 3D PDF model on my website; here is the link:

Is a good way to show clients your models and all you need is Acrobat Reader to see it.
I only wish that it had the option of displaying edges.

That's great! How do you do that?

Fine design too.

For me the download stopped at about 3,7 Mb, and I had to force-quit IE.

If you are still having a problem with the download, let us know and we will provide a HTTP URL (sometimes FTP URLs fail)

Well, while I do not like Adobe Acrobat that much, I love pdf files. They have made my work so much easier (especially using Mac save/mail as Pdf). This doesn't work in Mac Preview where I usually view pdf. However this can be great for the majority of clients who will usually have Acrobat Reader and to whom loading and learning a new program is a huge deal. (Some are just too busy, that's why they have the money to be our clients.)

I don't particularly like that it cuts sections in the foreground. One of the courtyard views in the sample has inexplicable shapes because of this and the pool gets strange, probably the same reason.

Maybe if we all take a minute to nag Foxit, they might respond. I'd be willing to pay for a small, fast PDF viewer over using the free, but huge and slow Adobe reader.
