On one hand, MeshLab can convert from other 3D formats to U3D (older Adob= e=20 format) and embed U3D into PDF files via LaTeX with movie15 package, thus it may be useful in 3D PDF workflow in general, on the other hand it does= =20 not have anything to do with ConTeXt. As to the module Renaud Aubin wrote to support 3D annotations - it is=20 mkii thing, for example it uses "definefileinsertion" that did not find=20 its way into mkiv IMHO. While MeshLab may be of great use if you have to convert old data or=20 process output from some existing tool, in cases when you make your model= =20 from scratch by hand or create 3D model file in your own program Asymptot= e=20 may be a better choice since it supports newer PRC 3D format, that is muc= h=20 richer in features and has better prospects when it comes to support and=20 development by Adobe. On the minus side Asymptote is under active=20 development and some of its advantages are not there yet - but so is ConT= eXt.
