Hi, I have a large STL model (approx 15 mb) from a 3D scanning of an item. I would like to convert this into an autocad-usable format. Since this is a one-time thing, I would like to avoid buying anything if possible. Any ideas? Thanks. -qabi

That's odd. It says it will accept a file size up to 20mb. What does the error say? You can download a trial version of Sycode's stl import for Autocad plug-in. It's good for 10 days or 10 runs, so you can use it and then delete it.

Windows-only, I believe. Thanks, -qabi

Can you please send me the complaining file over e-mail or dropfile (zipped)?

It seems to be some specific problem of the upload component. The supplied file converts fine on our test server - creating a hefty 99MB DXF file. We will look into this. ------------- Vladimir Michl (moderator) ARKANCE - https://arkance.world" rel="nofollow - https://arkance.world - Autodesk Platinum Partner |

I see. Thanks. Any chance that you could dump the 99 DXF file somewhere? Like rapidshare, or such? -qabi
