Convert X_T to PLY
| File Extension | X_T |
| Full Name | Parasolid File Format |
Files with the .X_T extension contain information concerning 3D CAD models – their geometry, topology, and color, written in text format. This type of encoding ensures easy importing of the file across a range of CAD modelling applications. The same data, written in binary form, is contained in .X_B files.
| File Extension | PLY |
| Full Name | Polygon Format |
File with a .PLY extension contains a 3D image stored with headlines and sets of apexes of polygons which compose an object. It is compliant with the Polygon File open format. File can also store properties of each polygon, such as colour, transparency or information on textures.
What is file format conversion?
File format conversion is the process of transforming a file from one format (referred to as "X_T") to another (referred to as "PLY"). This may be necessary for various reasons. For example, X_T 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 X_T to format PLY becomes essential.
So, how can we perform X_T to PLY 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 X_T and transforming it into format PLY. This allows the preservation of the original information contained in the file, even after changing its format. Below you will find a list of X_T to PLY converters.

How to convert the X_T file to PLY?
If you have already downloaded one of the converters and installed it on your computer, you can proceed to the appropriate conversion process of X_T to PLY. 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 X_T file:
- Please indicate on your computer the source file X_T, the format of which you are going to change
- Load the X_T file to the application
- Select the output format of the PLY file (the one that we want to achieve)
- Select the location to save the output file PLY on the disk (the place where the program will save the converted file)
- Confirm conversion
- Wait for a moment
- Enjoy the converted PLY 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.
