I've been trying to make a male and matching female screw and fitting for attaching two parts that will be 3D printed. However, whenever I export the part to an .STL file, the threads do not show or print properly. Any ideas on how to fix this in Inventor?
Look closely (very closely) at your model - the Thread and Hole-threaded tools in Inventor create cosmetic bit-map image representations of thread, not real thread geometry.

If you use an add-in to create your threads - double check that it uses the correct thread form (last time I checked it didn't, but it has been a while since I checked).
