Convert RTE to RVT

Understanding RTE and RVT file formats

The RTE file format is commonly associated with Revit Template files. These files are used as a starting point for creating new projects in Autodesk Revit, a popular Building Information Modeling (BIM) software. RTE files contain predefined settings, views, and elements that help streamline the design process.

On the other hand, the RVT file format is the standard file type for Revit projects. RVT files store all the information related to a building model, including 3D geometry, annotations, and construction data. Converting an RTE file to an RVT file essentially involves creating a new project based on the template.

How to convert RTE to RVT

Converting an RTE file to an RVT file is a straightforward process within Autodesk Revit. Follow these steps:

• Open Autodesk Revit.
• Go to File → Open and select the RTE file you want to convert.
• Once the template is open, go to File → Save As → Project.
• Choose a location and name for your new RVT file and click Save.

This process will create a new RVT file based on the RTE template, allowing you to start working on your project immediately.

Best software for RTE to RVT conversion

The best software for converting RTE files to RVT files is Autodesk Revit itself. As the native application for both file types, Revit ensures a seamless conversion process without any data loss or compatibility issues. Using Revit, you can easily open an RTE file and save it as an RVT file, maintaining all the template settings and elements.
