Convert SVG to OBJ
Convert a SVG file to OBJ in your browser. Free, no upload, no sign-up.
Convert SVG files to OBJ directly in your browser. The converter extrudes every filled shape in the SVG to the thickness you choose and writes the resulting solid as OBJ. Nothing is uploaded, there is no file size limit beyond your computer's memory, and the result downloads instantly. OBJ keeps groups and UV coordinates and opens in every modelling tool, which makes it a good format for editing or texturing a model.
How to convert SVG to OBJ
- 1Drop your SVG file
Drag a .svg file onto the box above or click to choose one. Filled paths are extruded; strokes, gradients, text elements that were not converted to outlines, and embedded raster images are ignored. Convert text to paths in your vector editor first.
- 2Set the extrusion depth
Enter how thick the 3D shape should be in millimeters before dropping the file, or change it and reconvert.
- 3Check the preview
The model renders in 3D so you can confirm it loaded correctly. Dimensions, volume and triangle count are shown next to it; open edges are flagged if the mesh is not watertight.
- 4Download the OBJ
Adjust the export options if needed and click download. A .mtl material file is not generated; the exported OBJ contains geometry, normals and UVs only.
What is a SVG file?
SVG is the standard 2D vector format. It has no depth, so converting it to a 3D format means extruding the filled shapes into solids of a chosen thickness. This is how logos, text, cookie cutters, keychains and signs are turned into printable models.
Commonly used by: Illustrator, Inkscape, Figma, logo files, laser cutting
Filled paths are extruded; strokes, gradients, text elements that were not converted to outlines, and embedded raster images are ignored. Convert text to paths in your vector editor first.
What is a OBJ file?
OBJ is a plain-text mesh format from Wavefront. It stores vertices, normals, UV texture coordinates and face definitions, and references materials through a companion .mtl file. It is human-readable and supported by virtually every 3D modelling application.
Commonly used by: Blender, Maya, ZBrush, game engines, photogrammetry tools
OBJ keeps groups and UV coordinates and opens in every modelling tool, which makes it a good format for editing or texturing a model.
