What is 2D file?
The 2D file extension is used for 2D VersaCAD drawing files. These files are made with VersaCAD computer aided design (CAD) software, a popular program for creating technical drawings for building plans, scaffolding, cabinetry and various other applications. VersaCAD drawings are vector graphic files that store information on dot patterns called pixels. This information can be scaled up or down as needed so the drawing can be used on projects of any size. [ ⏩ ] 2D file extension
How to convert the file from 3D to 2D?
To successfully convert the 3D file to 2D, you should install one of the applications from the list. After installing the software, open the program and select the file you want to convert (file-name.3D). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case 2D (usually converters allow you to convert to several different formats, so check out their features - maybe one of the available formats will suit you more than 2D).
What is a file conversion?
A data conversion is normally an automated process to some extent. The effect of the operation of one program is automatically the input product of another application. If that does not happen we need to help the process a little bit and convert the file on our own, e.g. 3D to 2D. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.
Program for converting 3D files to 2D files is a kind of a "binary code translator" compensating for the differences in the code or translating it in such a way so that another application could use it. For us, as users, the visible change will be only another file extension. (After converting the file, it will be the extension 2D, while before this step we had the 3D file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new 2D file, or not.
