Convert your VSD file to BLEND

Use our free and fast online tool to convert your VSD (Microsoft Visio) image or logo into 3D BLEND (Blender) mesh/model files suitable for printing with a 3D printer or for loading into your favorite 3D editing package.

How to Convert your VSD to BLEND Online?

Here are three simple steps to create an BLEND file from a VSD file.

Upload a VSD

Click the "Upload a File" button and select VSD to upload. The maximum file size is 100MB.

Select your Options

Set the dimensions and other options, and click the "Convert to BLEND" button to convert your VSD to BLEND.

Download your BLEND

Click the download link once completed to receive your BLEND file.

VSD to BLEND Conversion Options

Tool

This setting allows you to specify how your VSD vector file is converted to an BLEND model. The Extrude options will extrude your vector file into 3D space, while the Standard options will apply a heightmap process to your VSD file.

Detail

The setting can be used to alter the detail of the final BLEND model that is created. The default setting of Medium works well for most Extrude and Heightmap conversions, with the High setting recommended for highly detailed VSD vector files.

Add Base

This setting, when given a height of more than zero, will instruct the tool to add a solid 3D base to the final BLEND model. The selected unit of measurement specifies the height of the base.

Invert Output

When the Invert Output option is checked, the pixel brightness is reversed, i.e., black becomes white and white becomes black, resulting in a 3D model that is reversed.

Units

This setting tells the tool how to size the final 3D model when using the settings below for Width, Height, and Depth settings.

Upload Color Overlay

When using either the Color Extrude or Heightmap options within the Tool menu, you can optionally upload a separate image that can be used to colorize your 3D model.

Color Conversion

This setting instructs the tool on how to interpret the color information of the elements in your VSD vector file, thereby influencing the creation of the 3D BLEND model. The grayscale option is most commonly used when working with heightmaps, unless you are dealing with specific requirements that necessitate the use of color.

Merge Similar Colors

Use this value to merge similar colors; this is useful if your vector file is of low quality. A higher number can help reduce the effects of anti-aliasing in the VSD file.

Hole Reduction

With this setting, it is possible to reduce the inclusion of small holes within the 3D model caused by small, darker areas of the source VSD file, which can be useful in situations where the source image has not been optimized for use with the tool.

Transparency Conversion

When your VSD file has a transparent background, this option can instruct the tool on how to treat the transparency, with the transparency converted to either black or white.

Enable Smoothing

When this setting is enabled, the conversion tool will attempt to smooth out any "spikes" within the 3D model that are caused by contrasting pixels in the vector file being in close proximity to one another.

Z-Axis Mirror

With this option enabled, the tool will mirror the 3D geometry of the generated BLEND model along the Z-axis.

Generate Preview

If you would like the tool to create a 3D preview of your model, then please select this option. It is on by default.

Frequently Asked Questions

How can I convert my VSD file to BLEND?

First click the "Upload..." button, select your VSD file to upload. Select any configuration options. When the VSD to BLEND conversion has completed, you can download your BLEND file straight away.

How long does it take to convert my VSD to BLEND?

We aim to process all VSD to BLEND conversions as quickly as possible, this usually takes around 5 seconds but can be more for larger more complex files so please be patient.

How accurate is the VSD to BLEND conversion?

We aim to create the most accurate conversions with our tools. Our tools are under constant development with new features and improvements being added every week.

Is it safe to convert my VSD to BLEND on ImageToStl.com?

Yes, of course! We do not store the VSD file you submit to us. The resulting BLEND file, once created is deleted 15 minutes after upload and the download link will expire after this time.

Can I convert my VSD to BLEND on Windows, Linux, Android, iOS or Mac OS?

Yes! Our VSD to BLEND tool will run on any system with a modern web browser. No specialist software is needed to run any of our conversion tools.

What if I am using an Ad Blocker, will that affect things?

Yes. Although you can use an Ad Blocker, if you like our VSD conversion tool please consider white-listing our site. When an Ad Blocker is enabled there are some conversion limits on some of our tools and processing/conversion times will be longer.

Can I get support with converting my VSD to BLEND?

Yes. When you have converted your VSD to BLEND, there is a "Feedback" option that you can use to let us know of any issues you encountered when converting your file.

What version of Blender will the file be saved as?

Our tool will save all Blender files that can be opened with version 4.0 of Blender.

Description

The VSD format is the official file format used by Microsoft Visio, an application specializing in creating floor plans, flow charts, organization charts, and other vector-based charts.

The format has been around since the early 1990's, and like other Microsoft applications, files have evolved over the years. VSD files can be opened in Microsoft Visio, and many other vector-based programs offer support for importing VSD files for editing.

Description

The BLEND file type is the native 3D graphics file format of the 3D modeling application Blender. Originally released in 1994, Blender has grown over the years and is one of the most popular 3D applications available.

BLEND files store 3D content such as 3D geometry, vertices, faces, normals, animations, materials, and much more. Blender is free and open-source, contains many features you would expect in a high-end 3D editing application, and is available for most current operating systems.

BLEND Notes

If your original model file contains texture images and other texture-related data, these will be included in the final BLEND file.
