Yeah, it's suppose to and it generally does until you get into some large assemblies. You can get around this if you export it from SolidWorks as another format like .x_t or .step, but bringing in a large file in every case I did either did not produce anything or was a very large file. In fact the only way I was able to get a really large file to render is with the large assembly conversion. Of course this is also just in the things I tested, so hopefully someone else will be able to show some different or similar results. I'll send you some screenshots of the file sizes i got.

Acrobat 3D is supposed to shrink file size, not increase it. I'm going to have to delve into that some more when I have the time. Great write-up! Jeff Hey Josh,
