As easy-to-use as a standard paint program, Publisher3D provides all the 3D power needed by today’s illustrators. Publisher3D is document-focused and includes unique capabilities such as tools for directly associating parts lists with illustration call numbers, and an intuitive illustration workspace. Product documentation and graphics are easily created as vector graphics, high-resolution raster graphics, XML DITA topics, complete documents and informative animations.

Time and Cost Savings

Publisher3D Professional lowers the cost of creating and maintaining illustrations, and minimizes the burden on engineering by letting anyone access and reuse of 3D. Save time by publishing the same set of illustrations to multiple media such as raster, vector, and animations. Use a single program to assign descriptive text to illustrations that can be published as complete topics to Word, PDF, RTF, XML, DITA and more. Publisher3D Professional eliminates the need to draft illustrations from scratch with general purpose programs.
