Both the STL and IGES formats are pretty common CAD files and well-supported in various 3D modeling or CAD programs. However, stl to igs conversion will likely only work for simple meshes considering STL format contains limited amount of 3D data for the purposes of 3D printing.

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 stl to igs. 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.
