STLOUT
Stores solids in an ASCII or binary file.
Summary
The
FACETRES (page 1333) system variable determines how the solid is
triangulated. A higher value creates a finer mesh that more accurately
represents the model. This also results in a much larger file.
Select solids or watertight meshes
You can select blocks or external references (xrefs) that contain solids or
watertight meshes. Only solids and watertight meshes of the selected blocks
of xrefs are included in the STL file. All other geometry is discarded.

The
Create STL File dialog box (page 1038) displays.
The file is created with the .stl file name extension. The STL file format is
compatible with stereolithography apparatus (SLA). The solid data is transferred
