How does the OBJ to PLY conversion work technically?

Xonvert uses WebAssembly-compiled libraries to decode your OBJ file in-browser, process the 3d model data, and re-encode it as PLY. All processing happens on your device's CPU.

What happens to my files after conversion?

Nothing — your files exist only in your browser's memory during conversion. Once you close the page, all data is cleared. No files are stored anywhere.

OBJ 3D Model is Wavefront OBJ — the most universal 3D model interchange format. It is primarily used for 3D model exchange, 3D printing preparation and game asset import. Plain text format storing vertices, normals, texture coordinates and faces

Will the conversion strip my EXIF or metadata?

Xonvert preserves metadata (EXIF, XMP, ID3, etc.) when the target PLY format supports it. You can optionally strip metadata in the settings for smaller, cleaner output files.

Does the conversion preserve metadata?

Xonvert preserves compatible metadata fields when converting between formats. Some format-specific metadata may not carry over if the target format doesn't support it.

Can I share the converted PLY file directly?

Yes. After conversion, you can download the PLY file and share it via email, messaging apps, cloud storage, or any other method you prefer.

Does converting OBJ to PLY change the resolution?

Resolution is not applicable for 3d model files. All content data transfers at full fidelity.
