File Extension | RFA |
Full Name | Autodesk Revit Architecture Family Format |
Files with the .RFA extension contain either 3D model data or several different models that can be loaded into a 3D scene design in Revit.
File Extension | FBX |
Full Name | Autodesk FBX Interchange Format |
File with .FBX extension contains 2D/3D drawing or project blueprint saved as file in universal format that can be read by various programs. This proprietary format was designed by Kaydara in 1996 and later bought by Autodesk in 2006 for further development.
File format conversion is the process of transforming a file from one format (referred to as "RFA") to another (referred to as "FBX"). This may be necessary for various reasons. For example, RFA 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 RFA to format FBX becomes essential.
So, how can we perform RFA to FBX 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 RFA and transforming it into format FBX. This allows the preservation of the original information contained in the file, even after changing its format. Below you will find a list of RFA to FBX converters.
If you have already downloaded one of the converters and installed it on your computer, you can proceed to the appropriate conversion process of RFA to FBX. Handling all the programs is usually very intuitive and is based on the same pattern of conduct. We will briefly discuss a few steps that you always need to go through while changing the format of the RFA file:
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.
