Is it possible to import Creo files with text or sketches

I’m trying to utilize Fusion but run into simple hurdles that push me away every time I try. My models come in from Creo mostly and a lot of them have either sketches or text that needs engraved. I get the wireframe data/text when importing the file into Powermill as native or as step. Text is easy enough to recreate most times but some of the wireframe isn’t without the whole design assembly so that’s not an option. There has got to be something simple I’m missing. I’m trying to use Fusion for some of the simple work and can’t even do that. Anyone have any ideas?

I tried importing a few Creo Files. But Sketches were not imported... And they did not have text, so can't say about it...

Thanks and Regards,

Yes, Fusion brings in the model without the wireframe or text.  Attached is an example a Creo file and a step file of it that have the wire data. Also attached is a picture. Just wondering if I'm missing something or if there's a workaround. I want to try to use Fusion for some of our 2D work but haven't been able to get past this.

Fusion today does not import any wireframe/sketch data except through DXF/DWG, unfortunately.

Thanks for the answer. I was hoping to utilize Fusion in some way since I have it but there are just too many compromises at this point.
