The output from ImPLANT-STL is a macro file, ready to be read into the DESIGN mode of PDMS or Outfitting. This is done using the following procedure:
Run the macro file
-
Start up DESIGN and make sure that the database is at the appropriate ZONE level.
-
Read in each MAC file as:
$m <filename>
Large MAC files should be read into DESIGN by entering DESIGN in 'dev tty' mode and entering the command 'trace off' before the read command.
Reading in the macro may take some time, especially with large files.
