We are building mobile robots in a European Research Project. We often have to give back deliverables with CAD graphics. We just discovered the 3D feature of PDF and it would be very nice to be able to embed directly the 3D model instead of putting a ton of 3D views and cuts. That would reduce the size of the PDF and increase the amount of information we can transmit.

This feature is very new and I fully agree its priority is low (features such as video support are more important for me for instance). Yet 3D models seem to be part of the upcoming PDF ISO standard (based on 1.7 if I remember correctly) and, on the long run, a PDF reader should support it. I also wanted to raise awareness in Okular's developers community of the existence of this feature.

I have asked my colleagues for some examples of those PDFs to add to this bug.

Thank you.
