Is it possible to create an stl file from surface models in autocad 2006, or only Rhino?
I can create stl files for rapid prototyping from solid models in Autocad, but I would like the option of creating stl files from surface models in Autocad.
I have been told that my best bet is to switch to Rhino (another CAD application) because Autocad just can’t do it. Is that true?
Can Autocad export surface models to any other format than stl that I might be able to use in my Roland Modela4 software, such as .3ds?

That’s the only way I’ve been able to do it.
STL PRO DEMO
TransMagic STL PRO is a 3D CAD data repair and exchange software application designed specifically for medical, digital manufacturing, rapid prototyping (RP) and 3D printing industries. Anyone needing to use STL (stereolithography) files can:
- VIEW a wide variety of native and neutral 3D files without CAD software or licenses.
- REPAIR geometric errors to create water-tight solid models.
- TRANSLATE models to accurate STL files for rapid prototyping, tooling and manufacturing.
It’s easier to repair a CAD model than an STL file!
