    Hello everyone,

    To create an SLA model, you need to save your SW model as an .stl
    format.

    I was just told that to get a better SLA model, the model should be
    saved as an .VRML format.

    Has enyone heard of this format? My SW2004 version doesn't have this
    format. I don't know if ProE has it (The party that told me this is
    using ProE 2001)

    Any comments will be appreciated.

    Our SLA vendor does not accept home-spun STL fies. Too many problems
    with customers complaining about the quality of the models resulting
    from poor resolution (caused by said customers).

    Our vendor takes neutral files and makes their own STL's with very high
    resolution. No more complaints.

    When you save your part to a *.stl click on the Options button for
    control over the output resolution.
