Creo Illustrate: Illustrations, Animation Sequences Powered by CAD Data
Technical illustrations software creating 3D and 2D illustrations in minutes.
What is Creo Illustrate?
Creo Illustrate enables companies to transform CAD or engineering data into create rich 3D technical illustrations, 2D drawings, and interactive animated sequences that accurately reflect current product configurations and support formats from hard copy to augmented reality.
What are the benefits of Creo Illustrate?


Improve efficiency
Empower illustrators to develop 3D content in minutes from CAD or engineering data. Deliver your designs with higher accuracy in less time.
Increase service and parts accuracy
Deliver up-to-date 3D information from your products faster throughout their entire lifecycle. Keep your service procedures, training manuals, maintenance manuals, or illustrated parts catalogs current.


End-to-end consistency
Enable your technical illustrators, authors, and service planners to repurpose design and engineering data from any 3D format, including 3D CAD, for use in service procedures, training materials, illustrated parts catalogs, and all forms of technical communications having one single source of truth.
Key features
Repurpose CAD data for 3D technical illustrations and animations
Easily create 3D technical illustrations by importing design data from all major CAD systems. Maintain an associative link to the original CAD file to automate the 3D illustration change process when it comes to modifications to engineering design.
2D and 3D publish and export capabilities
Publish all the steps from a sequence to 2D or 3D formats with a single click in multiple options of vector/raster formats.
Generate illustrated parts lists and callouts
Create an interactive parts list with callouts that reflect the structure of the sBOM, representing the entire bill of materials or a subset.
