Convert your CDR file to Blender
Use our free and fast online tool to convert your CDR (Corel Draw) image or logo into 3D Blender mesh/model files suitable for printing with a 3D printer or for loading into your favorite 3D editing package.

Here are three simple steps to create an Blender file from a CDR file.
This setting allows you to specify how your CDR vector file is converted to an Blender model. The Extrude options will extrude your vector file into 3D space, while the Standard options will apply a heightmap process to your CDR file.
The setting can be used to alter the detail of the final Blender 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 CDR vector files.
This setting, when given a height of more than zero, will instruct the tool to add a solid 3D base to the final Blender model. The selected unit of measurement specifies the height of the base.
When this option is enabled, the tool will automatically attempt to make the background of your image transparent.
Manually specify your image background color rather than our tool trying to automatically work it out.
If the tool is unable to identify the background and you know the background color, you can specify it here.
This value can be adjusted to control the background removal tolerance. The higher the value, the more background is removed.
A higher value is useful for creating smoother results if your image is anti-aliased.
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.
This setting tells the tool how to size the final 3D model when using the settings below for Width, Height, and Depth settings.
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.
This setting instructs the tool on how to interpret the color information of the elements in your CDR vector file, thereby influencing the creation of the 3D Blender 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.
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 CDR file.
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 CDR file, which can be useful in situations where the source image has not been optimized for use with the tool.
When your CDR 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.
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.
With this option enabled, the tool will mirror the 3D geometry of the generated Blender model along the Z-axis.
If you would like the tool to create a 3D preview of your model, then please select this option. It is on by default.
Use this option to generate Face or Vertex (Smooth) normals in the final 3D model. Vertex normals give the mesh a smooth appearance. You can choose to not create Normals using the None option to reduce the file size.

CDR is a native file format used by CorelDRAW, created in 1989. It is a vector graphics format that started life on Windows 2 and has evolved over the years to support newer features. It is still as popular as ever.
These files are binary in format and usually represent a group of assets in a zip format (while retaining the CDR file extension). CorelDRAW is still being developed today and is the primary program for working with CDR files.

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.
If your original model file contains texture images and other texture-related data, these will be included in the final BLEND file.
Our tool will save all Blender files that can be opened with version [z] of Blender.
First click the "Upload..." button, and select your CDR file to upload. You can also drag and drop your file onto the tool. Once your file is selected, you can set any configuration options. When the CDR to Blender conversion has completed, you can download your Blender file straight away.
We aim to process all CDR to Blender conversions as quickly as possible, this usually takes around 5 seconds but can be more for larger more complex files so please be patient.
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.
Yes, of course! We do not store the CDR file you submit to us. The resulting Blender file, once created, is stored for 4 hours after upload; after this time it is deleted, and the short-term download link will stop working. You can create a long-term download Url with most tools that will ensure the file is retained for 24 hours, allowing you to download the file when convenient. Our tools also come with a Delete button, allowing you to delete the file immediately.
No. All our conversion tools process your CDR file on our dedicated conversion servers, meaning you can use our tools on low-spec computers, laptops, tablets, and mobile devices and receive your converted Blender file quickly.
Yes! Our CDR to Blender tool will run on any system with a modern web browser. No specialist software is needed to run any of our conversion tools.
Yes. Although you can use an Ad Blocker, if you like our CDR conversion tool please consider white-listing our website. When an Ad Blocker is enabled there are some conversion limits and some settings may not be available when using our tools. Processing/conversion and download times will also be longer.
Yes. When you have converted your CDR to Blender, there is a "Feedback" option that you can use to let us know of any issues you encountered when converting your file.
