Many CAD programs support both the STEP and STL format and thus should be able to help you to convert step to stl. Such step to stl conversion is typically done for 3D printing purposes - Stereo lithography, so the models can be printed on 3D printers.

The tables with software actions are a good pointer for what a certain program does with various file types and often may give users a good hint how to perform certain file conversion, for example the above-mentioned step to stl. However, it is not perfect and sometimes can show results which are not really usable because of how certain programs work with files and the possible conversion is thus actually not possible at all.

STEP
Files with step extension are quite often found as 3D model / part files saved in STEP (Standard for the Exchange of Product Data) format.
STL
Files with stl extension can be mainly found as stereolithography files for 3D printers. Used in many CAD programs as output format for models and prototypes that could be printed in stereolithography devices.
