Quicktime and those other programs you mentioned doesnt support viewing a 3d object like you do in the viewport. So you should render a single image to view it in a program like paint or photoshop. Or a chain of images to view it like a vidio file. To do that there is a great tutorial right above this topic I remember correctly. user added image

Adobe Acrobat 3D supports most file formats or you can use Autodesks DWG Viewer to look at any exported dwg model in 3D.
