Gurvinder,

We use the STEPcode library and have our own parser to import STEP file data 
into BRL-CAD data structures and export back out to STEP.  We have both import 
and export working, though both are in a preliminary status.

The STEP specification is very tightly controlled by ISO and is not available 
for free.  Fortunately, you don't really need the standard if you use our 
converter, even if you have to make minor adjustments.  STEPcode does all the 
parsing based directly on the schema itself.

Cheers!
Sean
