accessing a Solid Edge.dft file in Creo 2.0

[ghill]

Does anyone know a way to read a Solid Edge.dft file in Creo 2.0. I have a client who gave me this file and wants me to get model together for 3d printing. I need to know if there is any way to read this file type in Creo 2.0

It is possible to convert the Solid Edge file to a neutral format, as STEP and then, read it in Creo.

This type of conversion is possible with CrossManager : http://www.datakit.com/cad-convertors/solid-edge-to-step/14-7-0.html

A Solid Edge .dft file is 2D only. Ask your customer for a .stp/.iges/.x_t file of his .par file
