==STEP to X3D Translation==
Methods for converting STEP (ISO 10303) exchange files to X3D files. Here we focus on direct translation; an alternative method will be to read import a STEP file into a full featured CAD program and then export either as X3D if avallable or export as VRML, then perform a VRML -> X3D translation.

[http://cadexchanger.com/ CADExchanger] is a commercial product available for Windows and Mac OS that offers import and export for a number of formats [http://cadexchanger.com/products.html#formats]. At version 3.12 It offers import (and export) for STEP files and export for X3D. Conversion is by importing a STEP file and exporting as X3D. The developers also offer command-line products for bulk conversion, a software development kit, and development services.

		+	[http://spri.kshell.com SPRI] is a web application that allows browsing the content of STEP files. A STEP file can contain multiple geometric models and the web application allows for viewing what models are available in a file and selecting which are translated to X3C content. Preparing an X3D model requires these steps:
		+	# Using the FORM element on the upload page, choose a local STEP file and submit it to the server.
		+	# The page displayed on a successful upload will offer options for information views of the STEP file. The "assemblies" view is the most direct way to retrieve X3D translations.
		+	# On the assemblies page choose which assembly to render.
		+	# The rendering page will present an X3DOM view and also have links to download an X3D file and to view the X3D model with the Cobweb browser.
