RAW POV-Ray Triangles File

A minimalist ASCII format that stores 3D geometry as plain lists of triangle vertices (X,Y,Z coordinates), without material, color, or topological data. Designed for simplicity, RAW files represent models through raw triangle meshes - ideal for computational workflows where only vertex positions matter - but lack the support for textures or hierarchies.

Key Features of RAW

  • File Simplicity:

    Plain text human-readable format with no headers or metadata.

  • Data Content:

    Stores only vertex coordinates (X Y Z per line).

  • Geometry Type:

    Exclusively represents triangle mesh vertices.

  • Small Size:

    Minimal file overhead due to bare-bones structure.

RAW File Conversion

Automesher Application and Autoconverter software are capable of reading and importing RAW files through the use of the Open Asset Import Library, enabling seamless conversion of triangle-based RAW files into a variety of other formats such as STL, OBJ, DAE, SKP, STEP, and more.

DXF Drawing Exchange File

A universal, open file standard developed by Autodesk to enable seamless cross-platform exchange of CAD data between AutoCAD and other design applications. As a vendor-neutral format, DXF preserves 2D/3D geometry, layers, text, and basic metadata, making it ideal for collaboration across different CAD, CAM, and GIS software.

DXF Key Features

  • Origin:

    Developed by Autodesk in 1982 as the ASCII/Binary CAD data interchange format.

  • Compatibility:

    Universal standard for 2D/3D CAD programs (AutoCAD, SolidWorks, etc.).

  • ASCII Format:

    The DXF format is text-based and uses a standard syntax to store DWG drawing data. It can be easily edited and viewed with any text editor or viewer.

  • Exchange of DWG Drawing:

    The DXF format acts as a universal bridge for DWG data exchange between AutoCAD and third-party applications. This solution is especially valuable since Autodesk's proprietary DWG format requires licensed software for full access and editing capabilities.

DXF File Converters

Autoconverter and Automesher Application allow you to import and export DXF files, and convert them into various other file formats. You can use our products to convert 3D meshes into a set of DXF faces organized in colored layers. This allows you to further process and modify your models using your default DWG editor.
