FAQ
XPM to STL Conversion
What are XPM files?
The XPM (X PixMap) format serves primarily at creating icon or cursor pixmaps in the X Windows System. It was created in 1989 using the XBM syntax which is shaped in the C programming language. XPMs store black-and-white, gray-scale or color images and can be easily edited with any text editor.
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.
