With a Solidworks drawing document open, I went to the save as dialog box and there is an option to save as an AI file. I have done this a few times, and have had success with Path Simplify and ungroup items. The problem is that I have sometimes had success and it works very well, but other times it doesn't. I know it is possible and seems to work very well as vector art. I can resize without losing resolution. My problem is that I'm new to Illustrator and am not familiar with all the nuances of it. It is so much easier to create drawings with precise dimensions with Solidworks. I'll figure this out someday and let you know. Is there any way I can send a file to tech support and have them take a look at it?
