Converting OBJ to IGES

Can I convert an OBJ to IGES? I understand that OBJ has nothing but a point cloud and IGES has surfaces. Is there a way to toggle between the two formats?

There are ways to convert from OBJ to IGES, however you might not get the results you expected. If you try important an OBJ and then converting into an IGES file in FreeCAD, you will need to make sure that you have a low poly count and if not, reduce the number of vertices, because FreeCAD will try converting every one of those points into a surface, which will blow up the file size and result in an unusable mess.

You can download FreeCAD and import a obj file and export to an iges file. Hope this helped!
