Can Creo Illustrate open native Creo Parametric files such as assmblies, parts and drawings?

All,

Can Creo Illustrate open native Creo Parametric files such as assmblies, parts and drawings?

Or does and export file need to be created in Creo Parametrics such as Step?

@wfalco You cannot directly open a Creo Parametric model in Creo Illustrate. Instead you need to use the Import so it will create a .c3di file from the Creo Parametric model. 
If you use Windchill then I would highly recommend using Import, Link.

I'm confused. I go another response to my question saying native files can be opened?
