Hi Jo,

Ext.:
1. Open Acrobat 8 Pro 3D or 9 Pro Ext.
2. Open the drawing with e-drawings, move it in the position you like
it.
3. Push PRTSC and the graphic from e-drawings will save in Acrobat, you
can save it as u3d in PDF.

I like using the SolidWorks eDrawings and often prefer it because too many
times the engineers are either too busy to give me the drawings or the views
I need. It has been far easier to ask for .easm files that have been saved
for eDrawings

Thanks everybody for lots of advice and suggestions.
We don't have access to Solidworks itself, only the 3D e-drawing (.easm)

eDrawings Viewer to manipulate the model to get the illustration that we
need. Unfortunately, if we want to
See if there is an option in Corel to flatten the layers. I think
Visio gives you this option.
That might increase the rendering speed in the PDF.

Try saving from the source program to DXF, opening it in Corel, saving
as WMF, and importing the WMF into Frame using File>Import>File.

Sounds like the entire drawing is being converted (which with
thousands of components is a lot of layers), but you only really need
the skin or outer layer.
You'll probably have to have one of the CAD guys toggle that on or off
before they generate the PDF.

Hi Jo,
I would try a different path. Go directly from the drawing's .ps file to
PDF, then import the PDF into FrameMaker, then go to PDF from FrameMaker.
This may give you better results and it would avoid the unnecessary step of
using CorelDraw.

Hi Jo
Indeed, I think the drawings are too complex to be rendered fast onscreen
(in PDF). I've had a similar problem a couple of years ago with an
Illustrator vector graphic which had A LOT of gradient fills.
We fixed the problem by saving the graphic as a pixel image (.png) instead
of a vector
