We normally use Inventor, R2011, but we have a client we've done a major project for who uses SW probably R2013. We did the engineering and design and sent it to them in .stp format. Now they want us to quote a drawings package. Is it possible to convert drawings (and associated models) from Iv R2011 to SW R2013? We have 2 seats of SW R2010 which we could use, but we only have one full-time drafter who knows SolidWorks. We're concerned we can't meet the time frame. Also, I read that SW R2013 is not Windows XP compatible. Is that true? Thanx for your help.
The model will come as dumb bodies. No to the drawings.
Yes. Get more information here: http://www.solidworks.com/sw/support/SystemRequirements.html
