Model type

A relief raises the bright parts of the picture above a base plate: terrain, embossed logos, signs. A lithophane is a thin plate that is thicker where the picture is dark, so the photo appears when light shines through it. Print it in white filament.

Model size (longest side)

Height

Relief: how far the brightest parts rise above the base plate. Lithophane: the thickest point of the plate (the thinnest is 0.8 mm). Auto uses 5 mm for a relief and 3 mm for a lithophane.

Mesh detail

More detail keeps finer features of the picture, but the file gets bigger and slower to slice.

Swaps high and low, for example to raise a dark logo on a white background.

Understanding JPG and GLB file formats

JPG (or JPEG) is a widely used raster image format known for its efficient compression and compatibility across devices and platforms. It is commonly used for photographs and web images.

GLB is a binary file format for 3D models, based on the glTF (GL Transmission Format) specification. GLB files can contain 3D geometry, materials, textures, and animations in a single, compact file, making them ideal for web and AR/VR applications.

Why convert JPG to GLB?

Converting a JPG image to a GLB file is typically done to use the image as a texture on a 3D model. This is common in 3D design, game development, and augmented reality projects where 2D images are mapped onto 3D objects.

How to convert JPG to GLB

Direct conversion from JPG to GLB is not possible since JPG is a 2D image and GLB is a 3D model format. The process involves creating a 3D object (such as a plane or cube) and applying the JPG image as a texture. Here’s how you can do it:

  1. Prepare your JPG image: Ensure your image is ready and saved in JPG format.
  2. Use 3D modeling software: Open a 3D modeling tool such as Blender (free and open-source).
  3. Create a 3D object: In Blender, add a mesh (e.g., Add → Mesh → Plane).
  4. Apply the JPG as a texture: In the Shading workspace, add an Image Texture node and load your JPG file. Connect it to the Base Color of the material.
  5. Export as GLB: Select your object, then go to File → Export → glTF 2.0 (.glb/.gltf). Choose .glb as the format and export.

Best software for JPG to GLB conversion

  • Blender – Free, open-source, and supports direct export to GLB with texture mapping.
  • Sketchfab – Online platform for uploading 3D models and textures, with GLB export options.
  • Vectary – Web-based 3D design tool that allows image texturing and GLB export.

Tips for successful conversion

  • Ensure your JPG image is high resolution for better texture quality.
  • Check the UV mapping in your 3D software to ensure the image displays correctly on the model.
  • Test the exported GLB file in a viewer (such as glTF Viewer) to verify the texture appears as expected.
