How to create an IGES file to to work with Esprit. We are having problems with this and need some assistance any feedback would be great. Thank you.  

RE: IGES file created for Espirit from CadKey

What version of Cadkey/KeyCreator are you using?  The older versions of Cadkey had a strange export routine that will take some explaining.  With KeyCreator all you have to do is select File>Export>IGES>select the entities, then give it a name and a location to save.

We are using KeyCreator 9.0.3. After exporting an IGES file, Espirit just wont recongnize it. Strange. We have been using Espirit for years along with KeyCreator and never had this issue.

We use Parasolid xt to import into Surfcam here.  Just tried an IGES using all the default export options and it worked fine.  Problem in Esprit maybe?
