exporting post-process results?

Post by GarrisonHale »

Hi there,
I am exporting the final animated results using PDF extension. The problem I have is that when I am trying to edit this file using any other software i.e. draw plus I could not since the exported file appears as a picture. My question is that is there any possibility to export the final mesh as it is (as continuous lines, not a picture)?
Kind regards

Video formats like avi, mp4, animated gif,.. are not vectorial, are series of images

About not-animated formats:

Vectorial 2D: PS/EPS/pdf vectorial , SVG,...
image 2D: png, gif, jpg, tiff, bmp, ...
Vectorial 3D: VRML, OBJ, STL
(some can be exported with the colors of current draw result, try for example draw a result and export as VRML)

Formats of mesh+results: VTK, Ply, GiD results format,...
