hello im a student in Technion (university in Israel)

i started a course this semster in Computerized Engineering Drafting and we using solidworks 2010 student edition.

for the last project, i draft back at home, were i installed solidworks 2011. the problem is that the teacher cannot open it becuse she have solidworks 2010.
i saw that you can convert it with the Enteprise PDM or Workgroup PDM packges, but in student edition you dont get it.
i dont wanna get zero grade for this course, so i need some help.

 

first qusetion that i have is wich software edition come with this PDM, is the solidworks standart edition also include the PDM?

 

or maybe someone that have this PDM package can get my file and simply convret and send it back, it not big project, total of 30 mb, i attached it to this post.

 

thanks

Correct Answer

Welcome to SolidWorks forums Or.

 

The only option is to save these files as IGES or parasolid and then you can open them in SW2010. There is no other way to fix these files not even with PDM. In case she needs to just view these files, she can use e-drawings viewer (a free software).

 

BTW PDM comes with professional or Premium version of SolidWorks. And I'm not sure if it is there in student version.
