What to expect from your conversion

While conversions for different CAD-based applications will yield different results, most will have the following limitations:

  • You may need to create your own materials.

  • UV-information may not be preserved which can prevent provided textures from being re-applied.

  • Geometry may be fused into a single object.

  • Geometry may be faceted.

  • Layer information will not convert.

  • Objects/features generated from plug-ins may not convert.
