Pro-E and VRML

I have been getting in Igs files that need to be converted to .stl
files. I do not have a Igs to stl converter. I have been pulling the
igs files into Pro-E, but Pro-E has a difficult time making them solid.
I am sure many of you have ran into this problem. Lately I have been
saving the Igs surfaces to a part file (in Pro-E Version 20) then
exporting that to a VRML (.wrl). This can be pulled into Solid View and
exported to a .stl. This works fine and dandy except the quality of the
VRML is rough. Is there a way to increase the accuracy of the VRML
export in Pro-E. If so it could save many of us the cost of a Igs to
stl converter.
