Welcome to Canvas Envision!

Canvas Envision is an end-to-end visual communication and collaboration solution, developed for teams across organizations and ecosystems to create, share, and collaborate on every type of visual document and business graphic.

Being a feature-rich business graphics application, Envision gives users the ability to easily embed interactive 3D CAD models into their documents—whether they’re creating manufacturing work instructions, sales presentations, marketing brochures, or maintenance guides.

Using its powerful capabilities, downstream colleagues, service providers, prospects, and customers can view these documents through their browser, interact directly with the 3D CAD data, and take advantage of collaboration capabilities so they understand precisely what they need.

Envision replaces flat documents like Word, PowerPoint, and PDF files with a new interactive file type called the evdoc. Typically, evdocs are stored in a dedicated Envision cloud environment through which you can manage access and collaboration.
