STL File Format Tips
 
  
'''STL is an acronym that stands for stereolithography''', a method to approximate the surface geometry of a 3D model exclusively with triangles.
 
 
This file format is commonly used in 3D Printing, and it is commonly generated by Computer Aided Design (CAD) software or a 3D scanner.
 
 
The STL format does not include color, textures, or metadata (author, date of creation, etc.) of objects.
 
 
STL is a very common file format, but alternative formats include OBJ and STEP.
