We use AutoCAD and have dwg files turned over to us that require object enablers for both Bentley ProStructures and Bentley AutoPlant. We want to remove the need for the object enablers and convert the models to dumb blocks that do not require them. What ways is it possible to accomplish this without having to remodel everything? Easy world, you convert using autocad and object enabler to output regular block (not likely). If we have to have pay a company to do this that has Prostructures and Autoplant, do they require the data/spec setup files, or can they just open the dwg files and export to dwg's that don't require object enablers? Second option, is it possible to get a trial version of each to export and fix this issue ourselves.
You can convert Prosteel Object to Solids using PS_create_acis.
You can convert also Autoplant Solids to Volumes and send it to your customer.
Or your customer has both enabler for Prosteel and AutoPlant, than there is no need for any conversion.
A trial version is only valid for 7 days, other arrangements have to be discussed with your account manager
