Quick tips

  • Conversions run locally in the browser, so no model upload is required.

  • For production-critical assets, open the converted file in your target DCC, engine, or slicer before delivery.

Format comparison

glTF

GL Transmission Format

A JSON-based 3D asset format for interoperable runtime delivery and inspection.

  • Readable JSON scene structure
  • Good for web and toolchain handoff
  • May reference external buffers or textures
  • Embedded glTF works best for browser-only conversion

OBJ

Wavefront OBJ

A widely supported mesh exchange format for geometry, UVs, and material references.

  • Easy to inspect and edit
  • Broad DCC and CAD compatibility
  • Material files may be separate
  • No native animation or scene packaging

Choose glTF to OBJ when

Best use

Use it for Blender, Maya, mesh editing, CAD review, or a broad DCC exchange workflow.

What carries over

OBJ can carry geometry, UVs, normals, and material references, but animation and full scene packaging are outside the format.

Check before handoff

Open the OBJ with its MTL/textures beside it and confirm scale, normals, UVs, and material assignments.
