Exporting Documents

Calling the command:

T-FLEX CAD allows exporting its 2D drawings and 3D models into following graphical system formats:

Only for 2D drawings

•Windows Metafiles (*.wmf);

•Enhanced Windows Metafiles (*.emf);

•AutoCAD files (*.dwg);

•AutoCAD DXF files (*.dxf);

•AutoCAD DXB files (*.dxb);

•T-FLEX CAD Metafiles (*.bmf);

•T-FLEX CAD Metafiles without hidden lines (*.bmf).

For 2D drawing and 3D models

•Raster Image (*.bmp, *.jpg, *.gif, *.tif, *.tiff, *.png);

•Files in PDF format (*.pdf)

Only for 3D models

3D documents

•Parasolid files (*.x_t);

•Parasolid Binary files (*.x_b);

•STEP (*.stp, *.step);

•IGES ЗD (*.igs, *.iges);

•JT (*.jt);

•ACIS (*.sat, *.sab);

•RGK Zip (*.RGK_ZIP);

•RGK (*.RGK_XML);

•PRC (*prc);

•RGP (*.RGP).

Mesh geometry

•AutoCAD DXF 3D files (*.dxf);

•Stereo Lithography (*.stl);

•PLY files(*.ply);

•OBJ files(*.obj);

•VRML 2.0 files (*.wrl);

•U3D files(*.u3d);

•X3D files (*.x3d);

•POV-Ray (*.pov);

•Open Inventor files (*.iv);

•Rhino Model (*.3dm);

•IFC (*.ifc);

•3MF (*.3mf);

•T-FLEX Scene files (*tf3d);

•GLTF (*.gltf, *.gld);

When porting models from T-FLEX CAD to other systems and from other systems to T-FLEX CAD, you are strongly advised to prefer the STEP to the IGES format whenever possible as the more advanced one.

You should select one and press Export button on the top of the screen.

After calling the command, the corresponding parameters for exporting formats will be displayed in the system Parameters window.

Next, depending on the selected export format, either the file will be saved at once (as in the formats: Windows Metafiles, Enhanced Windows Metafiles, T-FLEX CAD Metafiles, Metafiles without invisible lines), or additional parameters, described in the subsections of this section, must be specified

3D Mesh Formats Export Parameters

When models are exported to 3D mesh formats, their geometrical shape is converted into a set of triangular elements. You may control the accuracy of representation which determines the number of triangular elements and thus the export file size.
