Additive manufacturing or 3D printing is a process of making three dimensional solid objects from a digital model. 3D printing is achieved using additive processes, where an object is created by laying down successive layers of material. 3D printing is considered distinct from traditional machining techniques (subtractive processes) which mostly rely on the removal of material by drilling, cutting etc. 3D printing is usually performed by a materials printer using digital technology. Since the start of the twenty-first century there has been a large growth in the sales of these machines, and their price dropped substantially. The technology is used in the fields of jewellery, footwear, industrial design, architecture, engineering and construction (AEC), automotive, aerospace, dental and medical industries, education, geographic information systems, civil engineering, and many others.

Experience 3D PDF
Most of us wanted to have a good idea on how our dream house looks like before even being constructed. Most of the designers nowadays can render you 1 or 2 views so you can appreciate the design. Rendering may take some time and money since it is time consuming for the part of the designer.
One way to solve that is by using 3D PDF. Not only can you see 1 or 2 views, but you can see 360°! This is because you can rotate, pan, and zoom the 3D model with no complex software to buy or download. Since it is in PDF format, you can view it in Adobe Acrobat reader which you can download for free in the Adobe website.
Whats more is that you can view the model on different light settings and also has an option to hide some of the items (if the model is layered).
