What is file format conversion?

File format conversion is the process of transforming a file from one format (referred to as "3DMAP") to another (referred to as "3DXML"). This may be necessary for various reasons. For example, 3DMAP file may be incompatible with the software or device we want to use to open or edit it. In such cases, converting the file from format 3DMAP to format 3DXML becomes essential.

So, how can we perform 3DMAP to 3DXML file conversion? Fortunately, there are many tools and computer programs available that enable file format conversion. These tools work by reading the data from the file in format 3DMAP and transforming it into format 3DXML. This allows the preservation of the original information contained in the file, even after changing its format. Below you will find a list of 3DMAP to 3DXML converters.

  • Select the location to save the output file 3DXML on the disk (the place where the program will save the converted file)
  • Confirm conversion
  • Wait for a moment
  • Enjoy the converted 3DXML file that can be found in the location selected in step 4
I cannot see the file extensions. What should I do?

File extensions are not normally displayed to users. To change this, go to Control Panel, select Appearance and Personalization and Folder Options. Next, select the View and find the option "Hide extensions for known file types". The option should be deselected (cleared) and confirmed with OK.
