Acrobat 3D and others?
(OP)
Does anyone here have any experience using Acrobat 3D as a tool to review solid models developed by others?
We are interested in pursuing the use of vendor's solid model information directly as a supplement to or replacement of paper drawing review.
Are there any other programs out with similar capabilities?
Do the major solid modeling packages have their own "viewers"?

I use eDrawing from SolidWorks. (or rather used to until the powers that be decided we no longer needed it.)

We use Inventor, and we spend on average 5 hrs/month troubleshooting Acrobat Writer issues.
If Acrobat 3D is anything similar, I'd keep miles away.
We also use Autodesk Design Review for 2D and 3D file sharing & reviewing.

RE: Acrobat 3D and others?
While acrobat 3d says its good for markups,etc.. it can take a while just to measure everything out correctly using acrobats measure tool (it is far from the fastest/best)
But depending on your solid model package you can have dimensions automatically imported into the acrobat 3d file.
I never have any trouble with acrobat write issues like the previous poster.
I still feel that the cad viewers/markup tools that each cad program has is a better solution than acrobat though.
Acrobat 3d does make some pretty impressive small size 3d models though for visualization/marketing catalogs,etc..
