Overview

How to Convert STL to EMF Using JavaScript

In order to convert STL to EMF, we’ll use Aspose.CAD for JavaScript API which is a feature-rich, powerful and easy to use document manipulation and conversion API for JavaScript platform. Open NPM package manager, search for Aspose.CAD and install. You may also use the following command from the Package Manager Console. For additional information on the Javascript Framework, you can go to our documentation site .

Package Manager Console Command


npm install aspose-cad

Steps to Convert STL to EMF via JavaScript

JavaScript programmers can easily load & convert STL files to EMF in just a few lines of code.

  1. Load STL file with Image.Load method
  2. Create an instance of EmfOptions class
  3. Call Image.Save method while passing the resultant file path & object of EmfOptions

System Requirements

Before running the JavaScript conversion code, make sure that you have the following prerequisites.

  • Microsoft Windows or a compatible OS with Web browser.
  • Text editors such as Microsoft Visual Studio Code or Notepad or Notepad++.

    STL What is STL File Format?

    STL, abbreviation for stereolithrography, is an interchangeable file format that represents 3-dimensional surface geometry. The file format finds its usage in several fields such as rapid prototyping, 3D printing and computer-aided manufacturing. It represents a surface as a series of small triangles, known as facets, where each facet is described by a perpendicular direction and three points representing the vertices of the triangle. Resultant data is used by applications to determine the cross section of the 3D shape to be built by the fabber. There is no information available in the STL file format for representation of colour, texture or other common CAD model attributes.

    EMF What is EMF File Format?

    Enhanced metafile format (EMF) stores graphical images device-independently. Metafiles of EMF comprises of variable-length records in chronological order that can render the stored image after parsing on any output device. These variable-length records can be definitions of enclosed objects, commands for drawing, and graphics properties critical to render the image accurately. When a device opens an EMF metafile using its own graphics environment, the proportions, dimensions, colors and other graphic properties of original image remains same regardless of the opening device platform.
