I guess the title says it all. I just purchased the STL importer program. Now can I import one of my previous scans and save it as a STL file? If so please explain how.

Thanks,

Jim

Of course you can!!!

Simply open the scan in the PE software. Once opened, select "Export to STL" from the "File" menu. You'll have to follow a couple onscreen prompts after that, but that's it!

Under the File menu I don't have that option. Mine only has "Export to Image".

Do I have to restart the computer or something to have this new program show?

Thanks Alex.

For the benefit of anyone reading this, the problem was because I was running version 1.165 and now that I've updated everything is working the way it is suppose to.

Thanks for your help diagnosing the problem Alex.
