What is 3D PDF?
• a PDF that contains U3D¹ or PRC² data
• PDF’s with U3D or PRC can be read by any
supported version of the Acrobat Reader
• 3DPDF was defined and developed, and
continues to be supported by, Adobe
• 3DPDF is an active part of the existing PDF
standardization activities
¹ U3D = Universal 3D, developed by Boeing, Intel, Adobe
² PRC = Product Representation Compact, developed by Adobe

3D PDF Standards Status
• U3D
• U3D developed by 3D Industry Forum (3dif.org) up
to Edition 4
• U3D currently an ECMA standard (363) under TC43
• U3D Edition 1 is specified by PDF/E (ISO 24517-1)
• PRC
• Specification published by Adobe in 2008 (PDF 1.7)
• Released to ISO TC 171 for standardization in 2008
• Currently managed by ISO DIS 14739 under TC
171 SC 2
• Establishes 3D standard to be referenced by PDF
(ISO 32000) and PDF/E (ISO 24517-1)
• Has been released for ISO Publication (June/July)

09/12/2013
PDF Week Results (May 13-17)
