Iges/Step Assembly Export
Iges/Step Assembly Export
(OP)
Hello,
I would like to know if anyone has found a way to export an assembly to a univeral format such that the entire assembly is one file. The flatten option on the iges translator will do this but the file is huge. Larger than if I don't flatten but then I get all individual components. So I am looking for another option or what setting will get the file smaller.
Thanks

Another way of looking at the question is to ask why in this day and age you're worried about file sizes. How big are the files and what do you intend to do with them. If it is just to send them in and e-mail or archive across the internet there are ways to compress your data, split it into seperate archives or transmit files up to 100Mb that will cost you nothing.

That would work I obviously meant to say STEP203 earlier the fingers juts couldn't help themselves, but I don't think it matters these days the important thing seems to be how you select the output geometry.
