AutoCAD Inventor :: Can't Convert An IDW File To An DWG
Dec 23, 2013
I have some Inventor drawing files that a client wants in an AutoCAD 2007 format. Ever time I try to convert the .idw to an autocad .dwg I get this message, "Problems encountered while saving the document." So far this is what I've tried:
1. Save copy as -> Save as type: AutoCAD DWG files (*.dwg) -> error message
2. Export to DWG -> Save as type: AutoCAD DWG files (*.dwg) -> error message
I am able to save as an Inventor DWG but I need it as an AutoCAD DWG... I think. I read somewhere that Autocad 2007 won't read the DWG unless its in an AutoCAD DWG format.
I am running Inventor 2014 on a Windows 7 64 bit machine.
I am having difficulty converting a STP file (made in SW) to a Parasolid Text file for a customer. I was going to post the model to Customer Files, but for some reason I cannot post on there? The file size is roughly 21MB
I usually work with blender and I have a problem with a file I downloaded. It is a parasolid file (x_t) which I can't open in Blender. I can't use CADexchanger as well because I am using a MAC. How to convert the file into a STL/OBJ/3DS file that I can import in Blender? I compressed the file and it is 5.8 MB so I can't attach it here and would have to send it manually.
how to convert this 3d .stp file into a .dwg file so I can put it into my autocad drawing. I don't have any software that will open it but I've read all over that it can be done if you have the right program.
I am working with a few engineers and they want me to convert the idw drawing file to a vsd "Visio" file for there redline process. They would like to be able to play with the line work in Visio. Is this possible?

how I change an inventor drawing to an autocad file. I can change it for idw to a dwg file and then open it in autocad, but I cannot edit it once i am in autocad, this prevents me from sending it through to a CAD/CAM scanner for manufacture.
We had a CAD designer create a 3D drawing for us. I am pretty sure he did it in Inventor. We only have Inventor LT here. I am so lost its not even funny and my boss is breathing down my back to get this done. How in the heck do I convert the .dw file to a .step or .iges file!?
I have tried downloading and installing the Inventor LT trial twice now but for some reason I keep getting errors and it won't run. convert the attached .dwg files to both .stp and .igs file format?
Is it possible to Convert a Solid Work's file to Inventor?
(I can get the file to open, but when I go to edit there is no model to see, yet there is the model in the drop down menu and get this error message.)

Ok, so I understand how to take my Inventor designs and make them into a .adsk file for use as BiM info. Without having revit how in the world am I supposed to check what I'm sending out to my clients? It goes against everything I've ever learned to just make a file and send it out blindly without checking it.
Is this really how Autodesk thinks this process should work?
I am having one query. I always recieves dwg file of diff. units from my clients. I have to convert those drawing dim manually. Is there any way by which i can import those diff units dwg files in my dwg file and get the content of these files automatically converted to the units that i want. I spend lot of time converting units.
I need to insert a 3d component into our AutoCAD drawing, and the vendor can only supply this as a .stp (step) file. Need to convert the attached .stp file to .dwg.
The file has been zipped because I am unable to upload a file with the .stp extension.
We are looking for a SVG to DXF file converter windows library which can be integrated into our application. The DXF files generated, should be able to be imported in EDA tools like (Altium,MentorGraphics)
We would like to know which tool can be used and the price, licensing terms as well. If there is a demo version of the library available to test it?
I have a tds raw file that I would like I would like to import into a new c3d drawing. I've tried and tried to convert it using the program inside of c3d, but to no avail.
We are providing files to a fabricator for their use. They have requested the drawing file, it is a 3D solid model AutoCAD 2013 file, be provided in .wcs format. I assume I need a piece of software to make the conversion but have not found one.
I recently requested a .tin file from our surveyor. He sent the file. When making a surface from the .tin file, I got the error message, need the .pnt file as well. When I requested the .pnt file from our surveyor he sent a .txt file. It has the format x, y, z coordinates in a list. Without having to call and request info from the surveyor again, which he may not know how to do, can I convert the .txt file to a .pnt file?
