Export to Inventor

Is it possible to convert the attached file to a 3D object that can be imported into Inventor?

 

I've tried a few formats but none of the pipe/fitting content is visible.

 

Opening the file in Inventor direct shows the pipe as square section.

 

 

Thanks in advance.

I don't know Inventor, but you may try using AECTOACAD

The command CONVERTTO3DSOLID will convert all of your AEC and AECB objects to 3D solids which can then be imported into inventor.  Run the command on a copy of your file and not the original as it can replace all existing objects which would wipe out the intelligence of your file and ruin all of your hard work.

Top job Keith, many thanks. 

 

I was way ahead of you on the "copy your work" task though, lost enough stuff that way.
