Hi,
I am using Inventor 2013 and have a nut 3D model. I have used the thread feature in inventor to create threads, but since this thread feature is just a appearance it does not show when I export it into 3D pdf using Tetra 4D.
I am not sure how to solve this issue.
Thanks.

Withe the Thread Feature in IV, it's only cosmetic. You would need to actualy model the threads with Coil-Cut command.
You can also install the "Thread-App" from the Autodesk Exchange:
Hi,
Thanks for this solution. it works great. But now when i create a .iwd drawing using this model and use annotations to add the hole dimensions it does not show the thread dimensions. (for eg. 3/8 - 32UNEF -2B)

That is correct, have have now changed the data of the thread from a cosmetic with meta-data that is read into the IDW to a profile feature.
Either one of the other.
