The electronic representation of a three-dimensional object is known as a 3D file. A 3D file format is used to store information about 3D models. It usually stores information about 3D models as plain text or binary data. There are literally hundreds of 3D file formats that are widely used in 3D games, printing, computer-aided design, manufacturing, academia, engineering and more. Each industry has its own 3D file formats for several reasons.
With GroupDocs.Conversion you can easily convert your 3D document into another file format. For example, 3D to PDF conversion code snippet looks like this:
// Load the source 3D fileusing(Converterconverter=newConverter("sample.3ds")){// Set the convert options for PDF formatPdfConvertOptionsoptions=newPdfConvertOptions();// Convert to PDF formatconverter.Convert("converted.pdf",options);}
Put it simply - you just load a 3D file into the Converter class, select the desired output format and GroupDocs.Conversion does all the rest.
Note
Refer to the API reference for more conversion options and customizations.
Convert to another 3D format
On the other hand, converting your files to another 3D format is also quite simple and natural.
The following code snippet shows how to convert 3DS document to FBX in C# using GroupDocs.Conversion.
// Load the source 3DS fileusing(Converterconverter=newConverter("sample.3ds")){// Set the convert options for 3D formatvaroptions=newThreeDConvertOptions{Format=ThreeDFileType.Fbx};// Convert to FBX formatconverter.Convert("converted.fbx",options);}
