Windows® 95/Windows NT® 4.0/Power Macintosh version Adobe Dimensions ® 3.0 New Feature Highlights The easy yet powerful When Adobe Dimensions software first appeared in 1992, it provided a unique feature in the world of 3D 3D rendering tool software: the ability to render 3D objects as resolution-independent PostScript®-language artwork that could be incorporated into any 2D PostScript illustration file.

Version 3.0 also offers Adobe standard keyboard shortcuts, drag and drop of objects, and other features that make it easier for users to move among their favorite Adobe programs.
