Markup support by AutoDesk viewer

The ability to mark up CAD files for Inventor drawings is supported by the AutoDesk viewer.

For authorized users, the CAD Viewer Workbench (pdpdm8500m000) supports these features:

  • Creating markups and saving them into PLM
  • Opening the CAD viewer in the PLM application without leaving the PLM application to access the third-party CAD viewer

The workbench has these advantages for customers:

Effectiveness of flow
PLM for Discrete interfaces with the CAD viewer out of the box. Non-CAD users can access design files that are already available in PLM. All authorized users can search, browse, view, and mark up the design files in the system. Markup details are saved into PLM and can be accessed by any authorized user.
Seamless integration
It provides the CAD viewer as an embedded component of PLM. Using the workbench, users can access the CAD viewer software and access all features of the viewer within the PLM session.
Enterprise-wide access
Markup details are stored in the system and are accessible to the entire organization without the need for expensive and complex CAD applications.
