I am trying to use Alibre Design v11.2 to export a STL file to Pronterface/slic3r for my Printrbot. For now I am trying to use the Alibre tutorial part Pull_Handle.stp. I export the STL file using default settings. I can see the part in EasyFIT or Netfabb studio, but slic3r says it detects no layers and that I should repair my STL file and try again. The Netfabb repair function changes the file size but doesn't fix the problem. I have no problems with slic3r and STL files from Thingiverse.
What am I doing wrong? Is Alibre v11.2 too old?
I know the Pull_Handle will not print well but I just wanted a known good Alibre part to test the tool chain and load the part into Pronterface.
