GLB to PNG is on the release list

The document is opened in a layout engine and re-saved in the target format, mapping each style onto the closest equivalent in the new format. That needs a full document rendering engine, so it will run on our servers rather than in your browser. It is next in the queue and it will be free.

The details

What happens when you convert between document formats

The binary glTF format. The standard way to put a 3D model on the web. The document is opened in a layout engine and re-saved in the target format, mapping each style onto the closest equivalent in the new format. The result is a lossless images with transparency. the safe choice for graphics, screenshots and scans, produced on our conversion servers.

What survives

  • The text and the paragraph structure
  • Most formatting: fonts, sizes, colours, alignment, lists and tables
  • Embedded images

What changes

  • Styles that have no equivalent are approximated
  • The file may gain or lose features the target format does not support

Where it goes wrong

  • Styles are usually mapped by name, so renaming a style before converting can lose the mapping
  • The target format may not support the same page size or margins

Why anyone would do this

Different teams use different formats, and the content should not be held hostage by that.

About the format

The binary glTF format.

One chunked binary file holding a JSON scene description plus the geometry, textures and buffers it refers to, all in one.

Where it is good
  • A single file — geometry, textures and animation together
  • The format every web 3D library loads first
  • Compresses well and renders fast on the GPU
Where it falls short
  • Only for real-time rendering, not for CAD or printing
  • Textures must be embedded or fetched separately
  • Meshes have to be simplified to stay performant
You will find it on
Web 3D, game engines, AR viewers, Sketchfab

The thing people miss

A GLB with embedded textures is one file, which is why a 3D product configurator can be a single download rather than fifty.

About the target

Lossless images with transparency.

Deflate compression applied to raw pixel data, chunk by chunk. Nothing is thrown away, so the pixels you put in are the pixels you get out.

  • Lossless — no quality is lost, no matter how many times you convert
  • Supports full transparency
  • Handles flat graphics and text perfectly, with no compression artefacts

Questions

GLB conversion questions

What actually happens to my GLB file when I convert it to PNG?

The document is opened in a layout engine and re-saved in the target format, mapping each style onto the closest equivalent in the new format. So the GLB file is unpacked, the content is laid out, and the result is written out as PNG. The text and the paragraph structure survives unchanged.

Will converting GLB to PNG reduce the quality?

Partly. Styles that have no equivalent are approximated The text itself is never re-typed, so no words are lost.

Is my GLB file uploaded to a server?

This particular conversion needs a full document rendering engine, so it is processed on our servers. Your GLB file is deleted automatically within an hour of the download being ready, and it is never opened or reviewed by a person.

Do I need an account or will there be a watermark?

Neither. There is no sign-up step, no email capture and no watermark on the output. The only limits are the ones your own device imposes.

What is the most common mistake people make when converting GLB to PNG?

Styles are usually mapped by name, so renaming a style before converting can lose the mapping

Why would somebody convert GLB to PNG at all?

Different teams use different formats, and the content should not be held hostage by that. In short: putting a product model on a website

Something most people do not know about GLB?

A GLB with embedded textures is one file, which is why a 3D product configurator can be a single download rather than fifty.
