Creating a Stereolithography File from a Drawing

Use the ExportSTL command to save 3D solid objects to stereolithography (STL) files.

To create an STL file from a drawing:

  1. Type ExportSTL at the command prompt.
  2. Specify 3D solid objects to output.
  3. Specify whether to create a binary file or an ASCII text file.
  4. In the dialog box, specify:
    • Save in: Navigate to the folder where you want to store the file.
    • File name: Type a name for the file.
