| Extension | STP |

| Mime Type | application/octet-stream |
| Format | Binary |
The STP file format, also known as ISO 10303-21, is a 3D file format used within the area of computer-aided design (CAD) as a way to exchange data between different applications. The STP format is essentially a plain text file containing commands used to describe the 3D object.
Due to the standardized nature of the format, there is support for importing STP files into many CAD applications. STP files can, however, become quite large, and some complex files can take a long time to import into a 3D project.
Mesh Geometry
The STP format is not a mesh-based format; converting a STP file to a mesh format is possible via most CAD applications via a tessellate function.
STP Converter Capabilities
As materials containing color information is supported by the STP format, our tool will do its best to include this in the converted file.

The FBX format, which is short for Filmbox, is a 3D modeling format developed by Autodesk with the aim of making it an open and easy-to-use way to distribute 3D models. The format started out in the mid-1990s and quickly gained traction, with its development continuing to this day.
Along with compatibility with Autodesk's Maya and 3Ds Max applications, FBX files have gained support with other 3D model editors, including Blender.
Mesh Geometry
An FBX file is composed of 3D mesh data, including vertices, faces, normals, textures, and animations, in a text and binary format to produce a portable file that is both easy to develop and compact and efficient as a medium for the distribution of models and full 3D scenes.
FBX Converter Capabilities
As materials containing color information is supported by the STP and FBX formats, our tool will do its best to include this in the converted FBX file.
