    3d DXF to IGES/STEP

    Hi,

    I recently moved from AutoCAD to Alibre Professional (Solidworks clone). It will do 2d DXF imports, but not 3D solids.


    Does anyone know of an easy way to import 3d DXF solids to IGES or STEP?

    Thanks.

    How about exporting .sat from AutoCAD?

    Most .dxf importers can't handle solids.
