Each reader reads the CAD file and sends the geometry information to Engineering Solutions. When a CAD file is read, a .msg file is created (or appended to) in the current working directory. For example, the file iges_reader.msg is created for the IGES reader. Three types of messages appear in the .msg file:

info: includes information about the file being read.
warning: indicates that data was modified.
error: indicates when a geometric entity could not be created.

 

These files can be useful for debugging errors found during import. Refer to CAD Import Difficulties for other suggestions.

For CATIA and JT formats, those files (respectively ct_raedr.msg and jt_reader.msg) will contain detailed information about imported assembly files.
