PRC (file format)

PRC (file format)

PRC is a 3D file format that can be used to embed 3D data in a PDF file.

This highly compressed format facilitates the storage of different representations of a 3D model. For example, you can save only a visual representation that consists of polygons (a tessellation), or you can save the model's exact geometry (B-rep data). Varying levels of compression can be applied to the 3D CAD data when it is converted to the PRC format using Acrobat 3D.

The 3D data stored in PRC format in a PDF is interoperable with Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM) and Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) applications.
