How can you convert a fussion 360 file to a stl file when the 3D print option will not work?

Hi @Anonymous,

Thank you for posting! You can use the "Save as STL" option in the right-click menu in the browser. However, before accessing this option, please follow the steps below to merge all the mesh bodies.

1. Create a new component and select "Empty component" option

2. Put all the existing bodies into the newly created component by dragging and dropping 

3. Go to Mesh environment

4. Select the "Merge Bodies" in the Modify menu, and select all the mesh bodies in the component (hold down Shift key when selecting multiple bodies)

5. Save As STL option in the right click menu

In the file above, I didn't include the text bodies but if you want to include those, try converting the solid bodies to mesh first, and then put the mesh bodies to the component, and merge with the rest of the mesh.

I hope this information helps!
