After creating stl file from Inventor 10 and setting option to HIGH with stl export, Quick CAM 3D V3 says "Cannot read from file:" error.
Any suggestions?

Have examined the file and tried to open it in several other CAM packages.
The STL is incomplete and some surfaces are not defined correctly. The problem shows up in 2 packages and would not open at all in 2 others.
This is most likely a problem with Inventer. Check the STL output again and also check the design of the car does not have any errors before it was exported.
Quick Cam has rejected the file because the data is currupt
Check the car is not an assembly as assembled parts cannot be exported as an STL.

Exporting .stl from Inventor 11
I am having the same issue. One of my students designed an F1 car and we received the cannot read file error message when we try to import into QuickCAM Pro. The Inventor file has no missing parts or errors.
I am a manufacturing center and have imported many files. This is the first time this has occurred.
