Export options

Vectary supports exporting projects to a range of widely used 3D file formats. Each format serves different use cases — whether it's for 3D printing, AR, web, or other platforms.

To export a file, go to the Menu ➞ Export:

Formats	Details
OBJ (.obj + .mtl)	Content: Geometry, basic materials Textures: Separate files Best for: compatibility with most 3D software Note: Does not support animation or lights
DAE	Content: Geometry, basic materials Textures: Separate files Best for: Interchange between different 3D tools Note: Can be complex and inconsistent between software
USDZ	Content: All-in-one AR-ready 3D scene Textures: Embedded Supports: Geometry, materials, animations, lights Best for: Apple AR experiences (iOS, Safari, RealityKit) Note: Single file, lightweight and optimized for AR
GLTF (.gltf + .bin + textures folder)	Content: Scene description in JSON Textures: External folder Supports: Geometry, materials, animations, lights, cameras Best for: Web and modern 3D workflows Note: Folder-based format, not ideal for sending as a single file
GLB (binary glTF)	Content: All assets packed into a single binary file Textures: Embedded Supports: Geometry, materials, animations, lights, cameras Best for: Web, AR, game engines, and when a single file is needed Note: Compact and easy to share, widely supported
FBX	Content: Complex scenes with hierarchy Textures: Separate files Supports: Geometry, cameras, lights Best for: Game engines Note: Proprietary format by Autodesk, large file sizes possible
STL	Content: Pure geometry Textures: Not supported Supports: Geometry data only (triangles) Best for: 3D printing Note: No color, no texture, no animation — just shape
