tmd_63 Posted August 2, 2016 Posted August 2, 2016 Is it possible to import an old STL file and convert it back into a 3d model within AutoCAD 2016 or 2014, either the standard version or Mechanical? I have some old file where the original drawing files have been corrupted and are unusable, but I have the STL outputs. I know that there are free programs to edit STL directly, but I need to recreate the original AutoCAD model. Any help please. Quote
ReMark Posted August 2, 2016 Posted August 2, 2016 You cannot import a STL file into AutoCAD however you can in Inventor. The other option would be to use a free web application available at the CADforum to convert the file from STL to DXF which can be opened in AutoCAD. Use this link to get to the webpage... http://www.cadforum.cz/catalog_en/stl2dwg.asp Quote
