The amount (in millimeters) of lossy compression applied to geometry. For best results when
Compress B-rep To
exporting geometry, set the amount to 0.001 or leave this option unselected.
You can compress the geometry after you convert the 3D file to PDF by right-clicking the 3D model and choosing
Optimize PDF.
Applies lossy compression to polygons.
Compress Tessellation
U3D
Controls the quality relative to the percentage of lossy compression applied to the image files. Higher
Mesh Quality
percentages indicate less compression and better image quality. A setting of 100% applies no compression.
Specifies the quality for textures. Lower values reduce file size.
Texture Quality
Removes triangles from the model. In 3D objects, parts consist of interconnected

polygons. The more polygons, the better the detail and the greater the file size.
Eliminates parts that are smaller than the specified percentage of the entire 3D model.
Remove Parts Smaller Than
Use this option when a reduced file size is more important than visual quality.
Specifies the number of nested levels. A 3D model can be divided into parts, and those parts
Collapse Hierarchy To
can be divided into parts, and so on. Collapsing the hierarchy to a certain number of levels flattens all the parts below
the specified level and may reduce file size and complexity.
Deletes duplicate geometric structures, such as those that overlap.
Remove Duplicate Parts
Strips out materials that either have duplicate versions or haven't been

applied to any geometry in the 3D model, including embedded textures associated with those materials.
Removes any smoothing normal information. Surface normals are used to store information

about the contour of a mesh's surface.
Enhance tab
The Enhance settings determine animation options and part colors. These settings are available for U3D format only.
Removes the animation associated with the 3D model from the conversion.
Remove Animation
Sets the number of stages the model should be broken up into. Each resultant

stage lasts a second in duration.
Controls the animation by removing redundant animation keyframe data, reversing the

animation sequence, or rescaling the animation to a different length. If you want to rescale the animation, specify
the absolute time in seconds or a percentage to determine the length of the animation sequence.
Randomly colors each discrete part of a 3D model, emphasizing the individual parts.
Assign Random Colors To Parts
Transform tab
The Transform options specify the position, scale, orientation, and units of the 3D model.
Embeds a value in the model output describing the proportion between length units (such as

inches or centimeters) and the displayed model units.
Changes the scale of the imported 3D file. For example, replacing 1 with 2 for the X, Y, and Z boxes doubles

the size of the 3D model.
Changes the scale of the object to conform to the dimensions you specify.
