Text to STL 3D Model

Our free and fast Text to STL 3D text creator tool can be used to create cool 3D models of any text you like. Simply set the text you wish to create along with the depth of the extruded 3D model. Adjust the font, size, and other settings, such as alignment, to create the perfect 3D model. 

Once your 3D model is ready, you can download it in a number of 3D formats, such as STL, OBJ, FBX, BLEND and many more.

3D Text Options

Rendering

This option controls how this element affects other elements. When Add is selected, the element is included along with any other elements in the scene. When Subtract is selected, this elements geometry will be removed from any elements it may intersect with.

Remove Background

When this option is enabled, the tool will automatically attempt to make the background of your image transparent.

Specify Color

Manually specify your image background color rather than our tool trying to automatically work it out.

Color

If the tool is unable to identify the background and you know the background color, you can specify it here.

Tolerance

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.

Tool

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

Transparency Conversion

When your 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.
