AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Convert All Files To STP And IGS
Sep 14, 2012
A quick search of the forum didn't reveal answers to my elementary question so here it is. I'm working to get some design components manufactured overseas. The manufacturer uses Pro/E but in one of their very cryptic emails they told me to convert all files to .stp and .igs files. What I need to know is which of these file formats applies to assemblies and which applies to part file. In other words, when I open a part file, should I export it as a .stp file, or a .igs file?

For example - I have to do this:
Open one *.idw file press ctrl+p, set A4 or A3 and then click "ok" button and "save" button (using PDF Creator)
Next step is same - open another *.idw file and save it as pdf, but another *.idw file can have 2 sheets, so I have to open second sheet and do it same thing.
So i have for example
workfolder/part-123.idw
workfolder/part-123.pdf
and i need do this for every *.idw file (including their sheets). So its really long time and i dont have time.
Is there a simple way that would allow - for example to open a folder and convert it all in idw files to PDF automatically ?

I want to convert my DGN files to DWG files.
So I write this code in LISP:
(defun C:Batch_DGN2DWG (/path dgnfile SDI_Mode) (setq path "C:\DGN\" ;;Default path for DGN files location. DGNIMPORTMODE 0 ;;Imports the DGN file in a new drawing file. SDI_Mode SDI ;;Save Current SDI MODE SDI 1 ;;SET Single Drawing Mode for AutoCAD. );;setq (foreach dgnfile (vl-directory-files path "*.DGN" 1) (progn (command "-dgnimport" (strcat path dgnfile) "" "" "" "y" (strcat path dgnfile ".DWG")) (delay 100) );;progn );;foreach (setq SDI SDI_Mode) ;;restrore SDI Mode to previous value.)
but I can't finish it!
I attached some DGN files for test purpose.

I am working on a museum project. I have been asked to convert full resolution files to web based files using "Save for Web and Devices". The problem is in the file naming. Museums typically use accession #s for each work. Example 1999.63.102 So the digital file would be named 1999.63.102.jpg (or tif).
When I attempt to save the file using "Save for Web and Devices" the resulting name is converted to 1999.jpg I believe the . (periods) to be the culprit. There are hundreds to do so renaming is not an option. This does not occur when I use "Save as".

I am trying to convert old DGN files to DWG's. When I import the dgn it wants the new exref path. for these I do not have the path so I have to hit cancel. Can I turn that off so I don't get the dialog box? I turned off the demand load xrefs thing but it didn't change anything.

I have some .otf fonts that I would like to be able use with my AutoCAD 2008. I would assume that these .otf font styles need to be converted to .shx font styles in order for AutoCAD to recognize them. Is this true? If so, how to go about making this conversion?

I am not a CAduser, but someone who is managing a CAD project whereby we need to covert the files to Microstation. My AutoCAD person has limited experiece doing this so I thought I would turn to you for your expertise.
I've read that you can convert AutoCAD files to .dxf and import into Microstation but will that keep the integrity of the file? As you cannot covert directly from one to the other because fonts, line weights, etc. don't translate well.

If I want to use Trueview to convert files down to my AutoCAD LT 2008; I just open the file in Trueview and convert, right?
Well...Yes, but Trueview then becomes my default DWG, DXF program when double clicking on the files.
My question is: how to make Trueview become less jerky?

I have 100 .dwg files that I need to convert to .pdf file type.For obvious reasons, I do not want to do this one by one.Is there a way to do this, using only AutoCAD 2010?
Simply saying to 'batch plot', use 'publish' or 'change a setting' does not work. I would like to know, step by step, exactly how to do it. If there is not a way to do this, or the way to do it is extremely complex, any Autodesk program that does it or a free program.

We have to submit a set of 18 drawings to a local municipality. They want the CAD files (in this case Civil3D 2011) in .DXF format. Is there an easy way to convert them all at once or do I have to SAVEAS each file one at a time?

I am using AutoCAD LT 2010 and I am wondering how I can upload from my dwg file onto Google Earth? We do have one user at work who has a drawing that we believe was uploaded onto Google Earth from AutoCAD but it appears it is loaded onto Google Earth using a KMZ file. Would I need to create a KMZ plotter or am I looking in the total wrong direction when trying to get this onto Google Earth?

I have 2 .IGS files (which I also have saved as SLDPRT files) that were drawn for me. I can open .IGS files in my copy Free CAD and the SLDPRT files in an eDrawings viewer.
I have sent the .IGS files to a CNC routing company as I want the shapes to be machined / CNC'd out of wood. However the company is saying the curvers are coming out faceted and asking for 2D DXF files.
Is it possible to convert an IGS file to a DXF files so all the dimension information is maintained?

Is it possible to convert a DWF to an .ipt (or .iam) file so that I can use the base DWF geometry in an Inventor assembly?
I have a dwf file that a customer sent me that is ~1.5 Mb. I asked to get it in a usable format and they sent a .stp file that is 23.3 Mb and Invetor just hangs (not responding). I let it try to load a few times for several hours without any luck.

Using Inventor 2014.
I was going to send autocad drawing to our client.
I found that converting IDW to DXF/DWG doesn't always get 1:1 scale on the DXF/DWG drawing.
In other words, some drawings are fine and the others are not.
It was set correctly in "Options..." by selecting "Base View Scale - Model Space".
There is nothing wrong with IDW files and all these files are using same template.
