Johannes,

that´s for drawings or views of models only! The easiest way once was VRML export, but none of the "modern" browsers come with a VRML plugin. Anything you want - streaming media, flash, whatever - but no 3D like cosmoplayer, cortona... VRML, once promising, is an endangered species nowadays.

Or have I missed something?

If you want optimal display quality on any size/resolution screen, and the ability for the user to zoom and pan the drawing, then you should try to keep them in a vector graphics format (rather than rasterizing them to a GIF or JPEG bitmap).

Examples of Web vector formats and their leading browser plug-ins are XML-standard SVG (Adobe SVG Viewer), CGM (Corel ActiveCGM) and SWF (Macromedia Flash).

One route to get your drawings into these file formats is via Pro-ENGINEER's EPS (Encapsulated PostScript) output, which our commercial ps2vector can batch convert to SVG, CGM etc. If interested, you're welcome to send me a sample PS/EPS/PDF file for testing.
