Slicing Native Pro/E files

Hi Karl,
        I haven't had any problem outputting Stl files from Pro/E with my NT
workstation, however I have not been happy with the facets that are
inherent with the .stl file format itself (particularly in the X-Y plane).
I wanted a true representation and output in the X-Y plane so I wrote a
routine to slice native Pro/E files with a variable slice thickness
parameter. All the curves are true and non faceted and only subject to the
inaccuracies of the RP process.
Best Regards and Merry Christmas to All,
Michael
