PowerPoint Presentations
Is there a way to export a 3D drawing from AC3D into a file format that MS PowerPoint can recognize?
The only way I know of taking a 3D picture from AC3D and putting it onto a PPT slide is using "PrintScreen" or a screen capture program such as SnagIt. |

Re: PowerPoint Presentations
On the tools menu, there's a command "Render" you can use to have AC3D call an external renderer. I believe it is setup by default for POV-Ray, which you can download here: http://www.povray.org/download/

Re: PowerPoint Presentations
Or use the Camera menu on each view (Copy to clipboard) - this will grab an image of the view which you can then paste into another program.

Re: PowerPoint Presentations
I use the Tools - Save 3D window to PNG file a lot ( don't forget to anti alias first ) PNG is an excellent format for any Office application.
