Keyshot is a great program. A lot of CAD vendors use Keyshot as an engine for there renderings.

This will also be implemented in Creo 4.0 I believe.

Keyshot can load .stl files.  It will work well with Express.  We use Keyshot for advanced rendering.  I have a full version of modeling and the built in rendering is very good for most presentations.

What do you mean by "PE"?   Express Version? or something different?

Im am not sure if Keyshot works with the Express Edition.

Hi, I suggest you install the trial version of Keyshot (for 14 days I think).

It's really easy to use.

Check what files you can export using Modeling Express. If you can save STEP or STL, you're fine.
