Export Format Data
Hello true believers,
We are looking at the viability of converting Pro/E files to IGS files and then importing into Catia V5.
We have some surfaces that used lots of reference datums in their creation. We would like to see
the reference datums come across in the conversion. IGS files consist only of a CSYS and solid
import geometry. The datum curves come across as part of the geometry, but there are no datum
planes that the curves were originally sketched on. Does anyone know of an option or export format
that might bring the datum planes along with it?
For reference, Catia has the following import options:
· All CATIA V5 files· All CATIA V4 files
· All Vector Files
· All Bitmap
· All 3dxml (*.3dxml)
· *.asm
· *.catalog
· *.CATDrawing
· *.CATfct
· *.CATKnowledge
· *.CATMaterial
· *.CATProduct
· *.CATPart
· *.CATShape
· *.cdd
· *.cgm
· *.dwg
· *.dxf
· *.gl / *.gl2
· *.hpgl
· *.ig2
· *.igs
· *.step / *.stp
· *.svg
Thanks in advance,
Frederick Burke
