RE: 3D PDF export

If you already have Adobe X pro, you only need to purchase the converter from Tetra4D.com. It is $498. I use it every day. It will allow you to take an NX design that is 1GB in size and convert it to a 5MB file that you can email. The recipient, in their free Adobe reader, can cut sections, measure, turn components on/off in the assembly, etc. The software also comes with a 3D reviewer. I use this application frequently as well. If I have a stp or parasolid file that I want to quickly see what it looks like, I use the 3D reviewer. I can be viewing the data on screen before NX can load a new session. Also, I use the 3D reviewer to verify stp, x_t, or iges output. The Tetra 4D product lets you bring in Catia files, NX files, etc. See chart below from Tetra4D.com
