What is 3DS file?

The .3DS is a 3D image file format used by the 3D Studio Scene software for creating and storing three-dimensional graphics. It is one of the most popular formats in 3D modeling, allowing a variety of programs to generate and view three-dimensional models quickly and with minimal error. The 3DS format is designed to make it easy for users to read, store, and modify 3D models. [ ⏩ ] 3DS file extension

What is STL file?

The STL (.STL) file extension is one of the most widely used mesh formats. It was developed by 3D Systems Corporation for use with its proprietary STL-Format 3D Printer. The STL file format is a simple, of binary format which records the surface geometry of a 3D object as a series of colored facets. A binary STL file is typically composed of geometric facet information and some metadata, such as the RGB color values for the facets. The most common use for . [ ⏩ ] STL file extension

How to convert the file from 3DS to STL?

To successfully convert the 3DS file to STL, 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.3DS). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case STL (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 STL).

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. 3DS to STL. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.

Program for converting 3DS files to STL 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 STL, while before this step we had the 3DS file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new STL file, or not.

How can the file conversion help me?

The 3DS file conversion is useful in many situations. It often happens that you need to send someone a file (e.g. a graphic file) in a specific format, other than the one the selected file is currently encoded. In such a case, you should check whether it is possible to convert it (e.g. z 3DS to STL), and if the conversion is possible - download the appropriate software.
