We are CAD neutral; one layout can consist of many different CAD
formats and we do not create any new CAD formats. 3DStudio and VRML2
files are a convenient format as they can have already predefined
materials that give great model realism. Most CAD systems have an
output format we can accept. If none exists a new loader can be
developed with our geometry loader API. Our COM API also supports CAD
interoperability whereby native CAD files can be read directly.
There are also some add-ons like SolidWorks Reader and Polytrans add-on that are able to read certain file formats.
