FAQ
PLS to OBJ Conversion
What are PLS files?
The PLS format is associated with the Gerber family of extensions, functioning as a standard in the printed circuit board (PCB) industry. PLS files contain representations of the bottom silkscreen of an electronic board, and are most likely created using a piece of specialized software called Eagle. The Gerber group includes several other formats — such as CMP, STC, STS and many more — all of which contain data on different segments or details of electronic boards (copper layers, solder masks, electric connections, drilling or milling details etc.).
What are OBJ files?
OBJ is a 3D model format created by Wavefront Technologies for its Advanced Visualizer software and now supported by almost every 3D application, which makes it one of the most common formats for exchanging models. A file of this type is plain text that describes the shape of an object: the coordinates of its vertices, the texture coordinates used for UV mapping, the surface normals, and the faces that join them into polygons. Named groups divide a model into separate parts. Colors and materials are not stored in the file itself but in a separate .mtl file that it refers to, with the texture images kept alongside. The format holds a static model only, with no animation, bones, or lights.
