The human visual system can convincingly and accurately interpret appropriately-drawn static figures on 2-d paper or screen as 3-dimensional. Static projections of 3-d data to a flat medium are useful though
However, due to the static, 2-d nature of the two major contemporary publishing media (paper and screen), the communication and publication of research outcomes still depends routinely on the standard 2-d plots, and less frequently, 2-d projections of 3-d renderings. scatter plots, histograms, bar graphs), specific 3-d renderings such as isosurfaces (an analog of 2-d contours), streamlines (an analog of 2-d vector/flow plots), and volume rendering exist. In addition to the simple 3-d extensions of standard 2-dimensional (2-d) plots (e.g. In the era when scientific data is increasingly multi-dimensional in nature, 3-dimensional (3-d) data rendering and display tools are mainstream, and indeed in some application areas (e.g. Visualisation is used throughout the scientific workflow: in experiment design, data acquisition, data comprehension and analysis, and importantly, in the communication of outcomes.

With the judicious use of 3-d rather than 2-d figures, scientists can now publish, share and archive more useful, flexible and faithful representations of their study outcomes.

We present new examples of 3-d PDF figures, explain how they have been made, validate them, and comment on their advantages over traditional, static 2-dimensional (2-d) figures. We explain how 3-d figures can be created using the S2PLOT graphics library, exported to Product Representation Compact (PRC) format, and included as fully interactive, 3-d figures in PDF files using the movie15 L aT eX package. In this paper, we motivate the need for embedding 3-d figures in scholarly articles. With the latest release of the S2PLOT graphics library, embedding interactive, 3-dimensional (3-d) scientific figures in Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF) files is simple, and can be accomplished without commercial software.
