File Extension | IGES |
Full Name | Initial Graphics Exchange Specification Format |
IGES is an extension given to files used by CAD graphics design programs. IGES are files that are a data exchange format between applications. This can be information about 2D graphics and 3D models (shapes, dimensions, properties).
File Extension | AD_PRT |
Full Name | Alibre Design CAD |
AD_PRT file extension is associated with 2D/3D modeling software Alibre Design. The software allows users to create sophisticated models and prototypes quickly and efficiently. Alibre Design is also known as Geomatic and was developed for Microsoft Windows systems.
File format conversion is the process of transforming a file from one format (referred to as "IGES") to another (referred to as "AD_PRT"). This may be necessary for various reasons. For example, IGES file may be incompatible with the software or device we want to use to open or edit it. In such cases, converting the file from format IGES to format AD_PRT becomes essential.
So, how can we perform IGES to AD_PRT file conversion? Fortunately, there are many tools and computer programs available that enable file format conversion. These tools work by reading the data from the file in format IGES and transforming it into format AD_PRT. This allows the preservation of the original information contained in the file, even after changing its format. Below you will find a list of IGES to AD_PRT converters.
If you have already downloaded one of the converters and installed it on your computer, you can proceed to the appropriate conversion process of IGES to AD_PRT. Handling all the programs is usually very intuitive and is based on the same pattern of conduct. We will briefly discuss a few steps that you always need to go through while changing the format of the IGES file:
File extensions are not normally displayed to users. To change this, go to Control Panel, select Appearance and Personalization and Folder Options. Next, select the View and find the option "Hide extensions for known file types". The option should be deselected (cleared) and confirmed with OK.
