I have a need to import 2 or 3 models into TS7. They are in .STL or .IGS format. I see there is a conversion pack available for $199, but that is kind of high for something I only need to use for this one project. Anyone know of another way? Free ware or possibly a utility that only does this one type of conversion?


Thanks.

I think Blender will import and export STL and DXF files. tS can read DXF so maybe that will work for you.

ask someone with a 3D converter to do it for you one time.

Here's a Blender page for their file import/export stuff.


http://www.blender3d.org/cms/Import___Export.5.0.html


It includes STL and OBJ and 3DS import/export which is pretty handy.
