In their third release to Photoshop CC in just four months, Adobe announced 35 new features. They will be shipping ‘a milestone release’ of Creative Cloud that ‘transforms how creatives work across desktops and devices.’ On the 3D printing side, you can look forward to:

  • COLLADA Rigging Support: Users can import animation and rigging data from COLLADA files, and continue to paint, finish or refine 3D objects. You can also leverage the existing animation data and Photoshop Timeline to create promotional videos.
  • Support for 3D PDF Files: Now you can export 3D models to PDF to be reviewed and manipulated in Adobe Acrobat. Colleagues can view, comment and review 3D models without requiring access to Photoshop or PSD files.
  • New Printer Profiles: New features include built-in options for 3D printers and printing services, such as iMaterialise, new MakerBot printers and Ultimaker.
