Convert EDRW to STP

File Extension EDRW
Full Name SolidWorks EDrawing Format

File with an .EDRW extension contains a compressed mechanical project, such as tools, construction materials projects, which has been exported in the eDrawings format for CAD software. It may be operated on by many other CAD programs, providing the SolidWorks add-on is installed.

File Extension STP
Full Name ISO-10303 STEP Product Data Format

The extension .stp refers to files of the type Step 3D CAD files. These are the proprietary files created by the graphics and modeling software, Step 3d which is used for CAD (computer aided design) purposes.

What is file format conversion?

File format conversion is the process of transforming a file from one format (referred to as "EDRW") to another (referred to as "STP"). This may be necessary for various reasons. For example, EDRW file may be incompatible with the software or device we want to use to open or edit it. In such cases, converting the file from format EDRW to format STP becomes essential.

So, how can we perform EDRW to STP file conversion? Fortunately, there are many tools and computer programs available that enable file format conversion. These tools work by reading the data from the file in format EDRW and transforming it into format STP. This allows the preservation of the original information contained in the file, even after changing its format. Below you will find a list of EDRW to STP converters.

How to convert the EDRW file to STP?

If you have already downloaded one of the converters and installed it on your computer, you can proceed to the appropriate conversion process of EDRW to STP. Handling all the programs is usually very intuitive and is based on the same pattern of conduct. We will briefly discuss a few steps that you always need to go through while changing the format of the EDRW file:

  • Please indicate on your computer the source file EDRW, the format of which you are going to change
  • Load the EDRW file to the application
  • Select the output format of the STP file (the one that we want to achieve)
  • Select the location to save the output file STP on the disk (the place where the program will save the converted file)
  • Confirm conversion
  • Wait for a moment
  • Enjoy the converted STP file that can be found in the location selected in step 4
I cannot see the file extensions. What should I do?

File extensions are not normally displayed to users. To change this, go to Control Panel, select Appearance and Personalization and Folder Options. Next, select the View and find the option "Hide extensions for known file types". The option should be deselected (cleared) and confirmed with OK.
