    Canvas Envision Reviews
    The Envision Cloud Platform combines the evCreator 2D and 3D graphics application with document storage, collaboration, mark-up and review, and interactive viewing in a turnkey package. It can be hosted on our AWS servers or on your private cloud. Document viewers will be able to easily access and consume digital instructional content containing precise 2D graphics, narrated animations, and fully interactive embedded 3D models. Interactive digital instructions are proven to drive faster time to task completion and reduce error count. There are hundreds, if certainly thousands, of downstream colleagues who have access to rich product data, such as 3DCAD models, and whose success is dependent on their ability to create, consume, interact with, and interact visually with that data. Too often, success is impeded by the lack of data access and the training and software to use it effectively. - 2D drawing and vector graphics - Image editing - 3D CAD visualization - Animation with text to speech - Flow charts and process diagrams - Smart annotation & dimension tools - Charts, tables, symbols - Text and document layout - Export to JPG, PNG, PDF, MP4, and more
