Exporting Silkscreen in STEP File from Fusion 360

I understand that the silkscreen and copper on a 3D board pushed from Eagle to Fusion 360 are in a 'Canvas' item in Fusion 360.  We have clients that require 3D models with silkscreen included, and when exporting a 3D PCB from Fusion to a STEP file, the silk doesn't make it out the other side.  Is there a way to achieve a generic solid export that includes the silkscreen?  In the past, we've exported DXFs from Eagle, imported into SolidWorks, extruded, corrected, which was a VERY time consuming process!

 

Thanks!

Step doesn't support canvas, so that solution would be unlikely. The copper however is 3D data, you should be able to export that just fine. 

 

Would it be a solution to export the silkscreen as a canvas and then import both 3D step file and the image in SW?
