Corel DESIGNER lets you import 3D models as 2D vector graphics to your illustrations. Before importing a graphic into Corel DESIGNER, you must open it with Lattice3D Studio Corel Edition. After you open the 3D model, you can preview it from different angles. For example, you can specify parallel or perspective projected views. You can also change the position, orientation, and size of a 3D model, and you can create cross-sections. When you are satisfied with the view of the 3D model in Lattice3D Studio Corel Edition, you can import it as a 2D vector graphic into the active drawing or save it for later use.
Lattice3D Studio Corel Edition lets you import files saved to the following 3D file formats:
If you want to use additional file formats, you can upgrade to Lattice3D Studio CAD Corel Edition, which supports native 3D CAD file formats including CATIA, SolidWorks, Autodesk Inventor, NX, PTC Creo, and more. It also supports 3D CAD exchange formats such as JT, IGES, STEP, and Parasolid.
For a detailed list of the 3D CAD file formats supported by Lattice3D Studio CAD Corel Edition, see the Help system within Lattice3D Studio Corel Edition.
You can embed or link 3D models in drawings.

If you have the advanced-level Lattice3D Studio CAD Corel Edition add-on installed, you can access settings for line types or fonts for creating illustrations in the Send to Corel DESIGNER dialog box by clicking Details.
You can publish to 3D PDF from Corel DESIGNER, creating documents that combine text, vector graphics, images, and embedded 3D models. Using a PDF reader that supports 3D PDF viewing, such as Adobe Reader, the end user can interact with the 3D model, so they can rotate, move, and size it.
