Check our videoThe STL file format is a widely used standard for representing 3D models, primarily in 3D printing and computer-aided design (CAD). It is supported by most CAD software, 3D modeling tools, and slicing programs like Cura, PrusaSlicer, and Simplify3D. The format stores surface geometry as a collection of triangular facets, defined by vertices and normals, but lacks advanced features like color, texture, or metadata, making it simple yet limited for complex applications.
JPEG is a widely used lossy compression format for digital images, balancing file size reduction with acceptable image quality. It is supported by most image editing software like Adobe Photoshop, GIMP, and web browsers, making it ideal for web use and digital photography. The format uses discrete cosine transform (DCT) for compression, supports progressive loading, and allows adjustable compression levels, though it sacrifices some detail due to its lossy nature.
You can also convert STL into many other file formats. Please see the complete list below.
