How to Convert a 2D Solidworks to CGM Format

Hello

It's an old format, you have to go through an intermediate format in my opinion.

Hello

A priori it is not possible:

You need to export from SolidWorks in DWG or DXF format, see here:

Then convert the latter with another tool, see here:

Thank you for the translation of my GT22 link:)

@ PL

you hadn't answered before I posted 

but between reading the question and my research ;-))

I have nothing to do with it, I looked for and found this answer and must not be bad since you have the same ref

Thank you for your answers, but I couldn't solve my problem.

The goal is to convert a 2D file from Solidworks (dxf, dwg, ...) to cgm format so that it can be read by Catia.

I converted a dxf file to cgm format with the tools you told me but opening the file with Catia doesn't give anything.

I keep looking.

Thank you for your help
