Convert AMF to U3D via Python
Render AMF as U3D without any 3D modeling and rendering software.
Aspose.3D for Python via .NET
Overview
How to Convert AMF to U3D Using Python
In order to convert AMF to U3D, we’ll use
API which is a feature-rich, powerful and easy to use document manipulation and conversion API for Python. Open
package manager, search for Aspose.3D and install. You may also use the following command from the Package Manager Console.
Command line
pip install aspose-3d
Steps to Convert AMF to U3D via Python
Python programmers can easily load & convert AMF files to U3D in just a few lines of code.
- Load AMF file via the from_file of Scene class
- Create an instance of U3dSaveOptions
- Set U3D specific properties for advanced conversion
- Call the Scene.save method
- Pass the output path with U3D file extension & object of U3dSaveOptions
- Check resultant U3D file at specified path
System Requirements
Before running the Python conversion code, make sure that you have the following prerequisites.
- Microsoft Windows or Linux based OS.
- Python 3.5 or later.
- Aspose.3D for Python referenced in your project.
AMF What is AMF File Format?
Additive Manufacturing file format (AMF) defines open standards for objects description in order to be utilized by additive manufacturing processes such as 3D Printing. CAD programs use the AMF file format by making use of the information such as geometry, color and material of the objects. AMF is different than STL format as the lateral does not support color, materials, lattices, and constellations.

U3D (Universal 3D) is a compressed file format and data structure for 3D computer graphics. It contains 3D model information such as triangle meshes, lighting, shading, motion data, lines and points with color and structure. The format was accepted as ECMA-363 standard in August 2005. 3D PDF documents support U3D objects embedding and can be viewed in Adobe Reader (version 7 and onwards). U3D format was developed keeping in view the aim to establish a universal standard for three-dimensional data storage and exchange. However, the format finds its main utilization in encoding for 3D PDF rather than being used as an interchange format. Acrobat 3D converts a supported 3D file type to either U3D or PRC upon conversion into the PDF.
