Description

The OpenSCAD file format, or SCAD, is the native file format of the popular free CAD software OpenSCAD used for creating 3D CAD models. The SCAD software is still in active development, with new features being added with each version.

SCAD files are text-based files containing scripts that allow the designer to describe the CAD model programmatically. SCAD files are then compiled to produce the final 3D render.

SCAD Notes

SCAD files, when imported, will be converted to 3D geometry comprising vertices and faces. If the SCAD file contains color information, this will be converted where possible.

Description

The PNG graphics file format is a commonly used format for storing 2D images, which can be highly compressed by the use of a palette if the image has a sufficiently low number of colors (256 colors in general). The PNG file is then further compressed using the DEFLATE compression algorithm to ensure small file sizes that are fast to download.

PNG files are seen as the logical successor to the GIF image file format and was devised in the mid-1990s as a superior format to GIF. PNG files are generally used for company logos, icons, and other non-photographic image content. Saving a digital photo in the PNG format will create a much larger file than an equivalent JPG image, hence the PNG format being unsuitable for most digital photo content.
