How to save a 3D model in file formats?

To save a 3D model in a file format, use your 3D software’s (e.g., Blender, Maya) “Export” or “Save As” function and select a format that fits your project needs (like OBJ, FBX, STL). Different formats hold specific data: OBJ stores geometry and textures, FBX includes animations, STL is for 3D printing. If unsure, pick the format recommended for your use case (e.g., glTF for web, USD for teamwork) and check software compatibility—most tools list common formats by default.
