Hi Autodesk Supports,
The New Release Form CadWorx2013R2 it can be now converting the specs from AutoCAD Plant 3D to CawdWorx
Specs. And from the other way the AutoCAD Plant 3D up till now can't convert the Cadworx2013 Specs to Plant 3D
Specs, there no update for AutoCAD plant 3D for these issue
Regards,
Ahmed Helal
Hi Ahmed,
Select 'File - Convert - CadWorx Spec' from the menu in the spec editor (see attached snapshot). A dialog box will open and you have to select your CADWorx spec file (*.spc), your standard library with referenced files, your datafile.tbl and the target folder for the converted specs.
Please, inform me if I could help you
Regards
Bernd
Hi Bernd,
Thanks for Your Reply, I think you didn't get my point, my issue converting Specs from CadWorx2013 Version in the
previous version no problem but with new version Plant 3D can't read even the extension file ( .prj) Befor Was spec
file Extension in CadWork (.spc)
I hope my issue be clear now
Regards,
Ahmed Helal
Hi Ahmed,
Thank you for clearing here the point. Yes, this is currently not possible. I will ask internally if there is already an update for the version 2014 here or if there are additionally plans for 2013.

Bernd
Hi Ahmed,
I've got now the answer of the development here. They were not aware of this change in the new CadWorx 13R2 release. I have logged now this issue to them and they will work for this topic here.

As you note, the best use of this forum is to leverage the experience of other users. This isn't the best (or proper) location to log feature requests or get direct AutoDesk support. Unless there is a *lot* of demand for this then it probably won't be added to the product while there are higher priorities.
If there is enough demand to make it worth their while a third-party solution might be an option.
It's now 2019, and there is still no support for .prj files. This is disappointing for engineering companies because the cost of spec creation is not something they take on as an overhead cost, it usually gets billed to clients, but everyone already has CADWorx libraries... I don't mean to rant, but this is a missed opportunity for market cap.
Anything new on this?
We have a suite that has Plant 3D and we aren't going to use it if we can't convert our already correct specs from Cadworx to Autocad.
