The Parasolid writer allows developers to export B-rep data from Exchange to Parasolid. The file extensions that you can create when you export the data are:
The assembly structure will be exported into the exported Parasolid file. This will include support for instancing and any coloring and transformations that may be present.
When we export the B-rep to Parasolid if the source format was Parasolid based then all the surface and curve definitions are maintained. This includes the blends and intersection curves. However, the B-rep is not exactly the same as the original Parasolid data as we occasionally need to do additional operations like trimming surfaces and recomputing vertices.
If the format was not a Parasolid-based format then all surfaces get mapped to one of the following:
...and curves to one of the following:
This format does not support a tessellation representation.
Views are a concept not supported by this format
PMI is a concept not supported by this format
