3D Publishing Options
A recipe is a set of tool-specific default rules used to configure the publishing of Creo View 3D model data from Creo Illustrate. The Creo View Adapters recipes control the level of information to publish. Sample recipe files are located at C:\Program Files (x86)\PTC\Creo 6.0.0.0\View Files Tools\recipe. The recipe files are annotated text files that contain details about the purpose of certain settings, and groups of related settings. You can manually edit the contents to adjust the level of information that is published.
These recipe files are included with Creo Illustrate:
pvschange_for_illustrate.rcp
pvschange_for_illustrate_with_view_state.rcp
pvsoptimize_for_illustration.rcp
pvsoptimize_for_illustration_with_view_state.rcp
* 
Most data are converted efficiently using these default recipes, but some workflows require modifications to improve the detail and quality of the viewable, to remove intellectual property, or reduce file size.
Editing recipe settings can have subtle and unexpected effects on the output. Avoid editing unless instructed to do so by PTC.
See “Defining Additional Viewable Compression and Creo Illustrate Recipes” in the Creo View MCAD Adapters 6.0.0.0 Installation and Configuration Guide for more information on these recipes.
See “To Set the Default Settings for 3D Publishing” in the Creo Illustrate Online Help for information on setting recipe options.
