Import obj mesh into Revit LT

Hi all, I've been using Polycam to take scans of houses to do as-builts. I can export as a mesh .obj file, which includes photo data, which lets me trace windows and doors (see screenshot).

I am thinking of downgrading to Revit LT, because I am self-employed (no worksharing) and the Autodesk suite is very expensive. Unfortunately I don't think LT supports .obj. If I convert the .obj file to .dxf, I lose all of the photo data. Does anyone have experience using Revit LT, and importing meshes (LT doesn't do point clouds) from something like Polycam that includes that photo data? Thanks!

Awesome - didn't know that LT does .obj files! Thank you.
