Generation of a 3D pdf and good color attribution

Hello

When I save a Solidworks assembly in pdf3D, it happens very frequently that the part colors assigned to my assembly parts jump. 

So I find myself with an incomplete Pdf3D in terms of color attribution. 

Do you encounter the same difficulties? Do you have a solution to this problem? 

Hello @natacha.colin 

Why not use Edrawing in HTML version so you or your partners will have the ASM with the right colors and in addition with a much better definition than Adobe's 3D-PDF

With the HTML version, your partner doesn't need to download any software.

The file reads like a web page.

Here is the user manual created by our brilliant colleague @d.roger (whom I salute and thank by the way)

Kind regards

Hello @Zozo_mp 

Thank you for your suggestion, and I had already thought about it but my client works based on pdf3D only. They have a kind of follow-up with this very specific process of pdf3D and they refuse another way of reading the files. 

Thank you

Good evening Natacha

Damned!

tong at the cat! Sorry

One of our colleagues will give you the right answer: I'm convinced of it ;-)

Kind regards

Hello

To clear the slopes:
- At what level are the colors assigned (ASM or PRT or both)?
- which version of SW?
- How is the PDF generated (file/save as)?
- Which PDF reader (Acrobat Reader or other)? Integrated with another tool (pdm?) or with direct access (double click)?
- Does the same piece that is present several times systematically lose its appearance or only a few instances?
