I have modeled a human character with NURBS and I have to export it to a CAD system (Autodesk Inventor) using the IGES-format. So I can’t use any fileformats based on polygons.

When exporting to IGES all colors of the model get lost, but the geometry is OK. I don’t use any shaders, textures or complex materials. I would like to use simple object colors / vertex colors.

Does anybody know how to preserve the colors in IGES? Are there any export plugins available that support colors in IGES?
