How to Make Manuals Interactive

    March 17, 2005
    Interactive 3D Adobe PDF documents are created with software called IPA.

    Interactive 3D assembly procedures can be service manuals and parts catalogs. Interactive 3D PDF files can be interacted with by anyone with free Adobe Reader 7.0. More than half-a-billion copies of Adobe Reader are in use, which makes PDF files ideal for distributing interactive 3D documentation.
