STL to MIF Conversion: FAQ
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.
What are MIF files?
The MIF extension can be associated with vector images under the MapInfo Interchange Format, in which case it consists of a map and a database exporting file. Also MIF or MIFF file format represents a raster image associated with ImageMagick. This open source program is specialized in editing images, and it is mostly popular among developers as it doesn't have an advanced graphical user interface, so it can mainly be used under command-line. reaConverter supports both types of MIF formats and can convert to vector MIF if the source file is also a vector, and to raster if the source file is a raster image.
