JAMA-IS IGES Translator

JAMA-IS is a Japanese subset of IGES designed by JAMA (Japanese Automotive Manufacturers Association).

JAMA restricts the entity set to what is relevant to their purposes and places additional limitations on the remaining ones. This version of IGES translator supports JAMA-IS v.1.04 standard.

For an introduction to importing and exporting IGES files in MicroStation, see General Data Exchange Procedures.

IGES supports many entity types ranging in complexity from simple lines to complex surfaces. MicroStation can “cleanly” import a large subset of the IGES entities. .

Translating large files can require substantial amounts of RAM and space on the hard disk. The message Aborting due to memory allocation failure indicates the need to add more memory or free up more hard disk space.
