Pipeprincess Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 Im new to CADTutor, and fairly new to AutoCAD. I used to use Plant 3D which has the ability to create PCF's and Isometric drawings, but Im now using MEP. for the most part, a better solution for our company, but now we cant create isomtric shop drawings. AutoCAD now has Isometric WS CLoud. Any ideas how we can create a PCF file from an AutoCAD MEP 2013 drawing? its seems rediculous that it cant??? it seems like Isometric WS is real loser if you can only use with Plant 3D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tzframpton Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 I'm proficient in AutoCAD MEP and I've never seen support for PCF files. I just double checked any Import/Export options and nothing. Granted, the info you're after is basically the same but I guess Plant 3D has use for the PCF filetype and AutoCAD MEP doesn't. Might want to contact Autodesk support to see if there's any option available, or even a plugin or extra download in the Support Center.

wspier Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 The only ADSK product I know of to date that converts a CAD file to PCF is ADSK Fabrication CADmep. You have to right click on screen for the screen menu->CADmep->Utilities->Export PCF File. You can even import a Revit file into Fab CADmep and convert that, like if you need to do pipe stress analysis on a Revit model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
