Work on 3D content in PDFs
Foxit PDF Reader lets you view, navigate, measure, and comment on 3D content in PDF
documents. The Model Tree, the 3D toolbar, and the right-click menu of 3D content can
help you work on 3D content easily. You can show/hide parts of a 3D model, set different
visual effects, rotate/spin/pan/zoom a 3D model, create and manage 3D views with
different settings, add comments/measurements to a part of a 3D model, and more.
When you open a 3D PDF and enable the 3D model, the 3D toolbar appears above the
upper-left corner of the 3D canvas (an area where the 3D model appears). In the lower-left
corner of the canvas shows the 3D axes (X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis) that indicate the current
orientation of the 3D model in the scene. Note: If the 3D model is not enabled (or activated)
after you open the PDF, only a 2D preview image of the 3D model is displayed in the canvas.
Tip: For most 3D-related tools and options, you can find them from the context menu after right-
clicking the 3D model.
Sign PDFs
In Foxit PDF Reader, you can sign PDFs with ink signatures or legally-binding electronic
signatures (i.e., eSignatures), or initiate an eSignature workflow to get your documents
signed. You can also sign PDFs with digital (certificate-based) signatures.
Foxit eSign
Foxit PDF Reader integrates with Foxit eSign, a legally-binding electronic signature service.
With a licensed account, you can perform an eSign workflow not only on the Foxit eSign
website using a web browser but also within Foxit PDF Reader directly, which allows you
to edit your documents and collect signatures with complete ease.
With Foxit eSign in Foxit PDF Reader, after logging in with a licensed account, you can
create your own signatures and electronically sign documents by placing the signatures
on PDF pages, which is as easy as signing a paper document with a pen. You can also
quickly initiate an eSign process to collect signatures from multiple people.
To create your own signature and sign the document, do the following:
1. Open the document you want to sign.
2. (Optional) Use the tools in the Foxit eSign tab to add text or symbols to fill your PDF
as needed.
3. Click the sign on the signature palette in the Foxit eSign tab (or click Manage
