Report and Error Files
Report and error files give you information about the import or export, and help you solve problems. Always check the report and error files after a conversion: Some problems may have occurred without been visually highlighted.
At Import
Two files are generated at the end of import.
These files are created in a location referenced by the USERPROFILE variable on Windows. Its default value is Profiles\user\Local Settings\Application Data\Dassault Systemes\CATReport on Windows (user being you logon id).
Report File
Its name is name_of_file.rpt. It provides references about the quality of the transfer.
Example:
E:\tmp\SettingsCatia\Authoring\CATReport\MyFile.rpt

When invalidities are detected in the input geometry, all the invalid faces (and all the elements of their geometry) are put in a specific Geometrical Set named invalid Input Geometry. These faces are shown as invalid in the report file.

Its name is name_of_file.err. It list the errors that occurred during the transfer.

At Export
Two files are generated at the end of export.
These files are created in a location referenced by the USERPROFILE variable on Windows. Its default value is Profiles\user\Local Settings\Application Data\Dassault Systemes\CATReport on Windows (user being you logon id).
Report File
Its name is name_of_file.rpt. It provides references about the quality of the transfer.
Error File
Its name is name_of_file.err.
