Arbortext IsoDraw: Illustrations and Animations With CAD Data

Produce high-quality illustrations and animations rapidly with real-time CAD data

What is Arbortext IsoDraw?


Speed the process of creating and updating high-quality technical illustrations and animations with Arbortext IsoDraw. You can produce illustrations using original 3D and 2D CAD data to optimize product and support information, such as assembly and disassembly instructions, parts catalogs, operator and service manuals, training documents, and more.

What are the benefits of Arbortext IsoDraw?

You can easily reuse valuable 2D and 3D data from CAD systems to deliver technical illustrations and intelligent graphics. Additionally, Arbortext IsoDraw gives you the unique ability to maintain an associative link to real-time CAD data, which simplifies the updating of illustrations and animations when engineering designs change throughout a product’s lifecycle.

Key features

Enhance product performance

Ensure synchronized product support documentation with links to current product designs, as you maintain up-to-date, relevant product information. Deliver a competitive advantage in your product information time to market by producing more illustrations in a shorter time. Convey explicit service procedures and produce more accurate parts catalogs using illustrations to improve comprehension, reduce errors, and increase customer satisfaction.

Minimize illustration production costs

Increase illustration productivity more than 30%–with no CAD knowledge required. Reduce the high costs of translation by using high-quality, interactive illustrations in place of complex text. Prepare illustrations–automatically–for publishing in multiple delivery formats, including print, interactive, and web media to eliminate expensive, labor-intensive formatting tasks. Leverage existing CAD models and illustrations to repurpose legacy content.

Specialized tools for drawing in perspective

Work with a number of specialized drawing functions, such as alignment of elements to perspective grids, rotation, and reflection—an elegant solution to one of the toughest drawing challenges: finding and creating ellipses. Arbortext IsoDraw features a number of versatile projection tools for penetration curves or for manipulating perspective views.
