File exchange with logo

Hello

When you send a plan to your clients so that they can view a 3D, what format do you use?

With Edrawing and 3D pdf, logos placed in transfers, or in appearances, disappear. The only "temporary" solution is an extrusion but when the plans vary a lot in terms of sizes, it's not really practical.

Thank you.

Hello

The Step v.214 format should keep as much information as possible to my knowledge.

The step ap214 format also keeps a lot of information it seems to me.

I could have specified, in case the customer is not equipped with CAD (hence the edrawing formats in exe and pdf 3D).

But thank you for the advice on the STEP version

 

I was working this afternoon on the extrusion solution, you don't have to have the 10x part and symmetrical version, in which case you find your logo a bit in "invasive" mode

Interesting Felix's answer.

I'm going to snoop around a bit on how it works...

What do you need adobe?

Hello

The big problem with 3D PDF is the size of the files!

Hello

It's a simple thing, but it's a logo that comes up often??? If this is the case made in one piece that you will bring back as you want in your assemblies and it will be visible in the edrawing in .exe and pdf 3D. For the size problem, you only have to make configurations of several sizes. You will only have one logo file with multiple sizes...

We solved our problem via a solution as proposed by AC cobra, using the http://www.vectorization.org site to extract a shape from the dxf, then creating several parts for the different dimensions (no ribs in the logo so use the function: scaling the sketch.

Solidworks should still work so that the decals can pass in Edrawing (a logical minimum...) and also in 3D pdfs. It's still abnormal that we can't send files with these logos without fiddling...

Thank you all for your participation and Ac cobra for its solution
