Hello everyone! I would like to convert some complex STL files into STEP for better CAD processing. Which software do you recommend for this? I tried FreeCAD, but I am afraid that details may be lost during the conversion. Are there specific settings or proven procedures to ensure a smooth transition while preserving the completeness of the model? I am thankful for any tips or experiences! Thank you very much!
