Export pdf 3d in color under inventor

Hello

I can't get a color 3d pdf with the export tool in inventor 2017.

Textures and colors do not seem to be taken into account.

The result obtained is always in "shades" of gray.

Does anyone have a solution?

Thank you in advance.

Hello

Under Solidwoks it works by assigning the colors in the rooms; I think the principle should be the same in Inventor. Have you assigned colors to parts or in assembly????

See this link 

it works according to them from rhino 3D and with other logs see the list

Hello

It may be a problem of textures being absent under the PDF 3D visual software.
If not, is the right view mode selected on this same software?

Textures and appearances are well defined in Inventor 2017. And I think this is a problem with the export tool.

Indeed, before I used Inventor 2011 and TETRA4D Converter for 3D pdf export, everything was going well.

Unfortunately TETRA4D is not compatible with Inventor 2017 files, so I have to use the tool included by autodesk.

Hello

I have found a solution that suits me for now: I convert my assembly into a "step" and I process it with TETRA4D, I get a 3D pdf with colors.

Thank you all for your involvement and your answers.
