Question

Can't use files from PTC manufacterer CAD portal

Is there any way to use the parts from the manufacturer portal using the student edition of Creo Parametric 3.0? I didn't have an issue with this when I downloaded it previously on a different computer, but my computer died and I had to get a new one and redownload the student edition. I can download the parts, but when I try to add them to the assembly the error message says that it was created for a commercial version and is not compatible with the version of Creo Parametric Student Edition.

    Hi,

    you have to download parts in STEP/IGES format and import them into Creo. Commercial Creo data cannot be opened in Student version and vice versa.
