STL to FBX
Please find below the list of our other useful resources related to the STL and FBX interoperability and exchange that can help you with the STL to FBX conversion.

STL File
STL (STereoLithography) is a file format developed by 3D Systems company, the world leader in the 3D printing industry. STL files contain triangular mesh only, without face color, texture, transparency and named groups data. While it is possible to assign RGB color value for each individual vertex, Autoconverter our STL file converter doesn't support this STL file extension. You can save STL files in binary or ASCII text file format, with the preference for the former one due to significant STL file size reduction. The triangles in STL files are always defined in millimeters therefore our STL converters will make the necessary unit conversion if required.
FBX Filmbox File
FBX (Filmbox) is a proprietary file format developed by Kaydara and now owned by Autodesk, a leading company in 3D software products. FBX file format can store transparent colors, texture images, reusable geometry components, assembly structures and even model animation data. However, our FBX conversion software, Autoconverter and Autoshaper, do not support animation frames yet. To read and write Filmbox FBX files we use the official FBX SDK from Autodesk.
