Since Geometric Modeling Kernels are a more precise format than STEP (and will often provide a superior translation) this listing will help you find which geometric modeling kernel powers are best for the CAD application you are working with. If you don’t have the ability to write the native CAD format, write to the geometric modeling kernel which powers the CAD application; geometric modeling kernels are more precisely written than neutral CAD formats, and give you the best chance of getting the cleanest, most accurate CAD geometry. For further information on when to use which CAD format (native, kernel or neutral), please see the CAD Format Ladder...
