Viewer for 32bits sw15 mep file

Hello

Does anyone have a solution either to be able to convert the edrawing of mep sw15 to 32bits format? or a 32-bit viewer (which incidentally allows you to manipulate the part like edrawing)?

 

I saw that there had already been a similar question:

http://www.lynkoa.com/forum/3d/avez-vous-une-solution-pour-creer-un-viewer-2015-sur-edrawing-en-version-32bit.

And my pb is the same. The subcontractor is not equipped with 64b.

 

A priori, EDrawing 2015 exists in 32bits: https://www.solidworks.com/sw/support/downloads.htm?fromrss=1

On the other hand, it only reads SW natives and not easm/eprt.

and it's the last 32bits version they release (we can feel that they released it because they got slapped on the knuckles by big customers)

So logically, if your subcontractor uses this version, it should work. But you have to pass on the natives to him, which is not necessarily desired.

You can also make 3D PDF, via a save as from your model, choose the PDF extension and check PDF 3D.

If it's just for 3D manipulation, it should be enough.

Thank you for the answers.

@stefbeno: I had seen this version, but it seems to overwrite version 64b... so I didn't test it.

@mcordero: That is indeed the solution I adopted last night. The pdf3D is not too heavy either. And it has the pdf map next to it to better visualize the whole.
