FAQ
PNG to OBJ Conversion
What are PNG files?
The PNG (Portable Network Graphics) file format was designed in the mid-1990s as an improved alternative to the previously existing JPG and GIF formats, and as an extension which would be particularly web-friendly. In time, PNG files have gained a wide popularity and are highly appreciated at the moment for their ability to provide a lossless compression of images, which translates in high-quality and detailed renderings.
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.
