FAQ
VDX to STL Conversion
What are VDX files?
VDX is the Visio XML Drawing format introduced with Visio 2003 as a plain-text alternative to the binary VSD. A file of this type is a single uncompressed XML document that describes the pages, shapes, masters, styles, colors, fonts, and shape data of a diagram, so it can be read, searched, and generated by programs other than Visio. It was widely used for integration with databases, workflow tools, and reporting systems, and it was kept as a save option in Visio 2007 and 2010. Because nothing is compressed, VDX files are noticeably larger than VSD or VSDX files of the same diagram, and embedded images are stored as encoded text.
What are STL files?
STL is the proprietary format for a computer-aided design (CAD) program developed by 3D Systems. STL is an acronym for Stereolitography, which is a type of technology used for creating prototypes or patterns through 3D printing. An STL file contains a surface representation of such a model, without detailed specifications of aspects such as colours. STL files can only be opened with a limited number of programs.
