Decrease size of exported STEP

_TL_

New member
Hello everybody,
I am exporting model to STEP format with ProOutputFileWrite and I'd like to know if there are any possibilities to reduce the output file size which is too big - by setting a parameter of this function, by different function or by config option?
Thank you for any advice!
 
Exported STEP file size depends on the configuration you have chosen.Unfortunately I have not seen that selection option in API your using , I have used ProIntf3DFileWrite() in which configuration of output assembly can be set using ProOutputBrepRepresentation.

HTH
 
Thank you, but ProOutputBrepRepresentation have only 4 flags and I am not sure, if this is what I am searching for.
 
each flag value represents/decides features to include or exclude while exporting to STEP.You can set false for solids your STEP output will be of much lesser size.
