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.

Your file is processed instantly and deleted as soon as you download it.

Understanding TIFF and GLB file formats

TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) is a widely used raster image format known for its high quality and support for lossless compression. It is commonly used in photography, publishing, and scanning due to its ability to store detailed image data and multiple layers.

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

Why convert TIFF to GLB?

Converting a TIFF image to a GLB file is useful when you want to use a 2D image as a texture or element within a 3D scene. This is common in 3D modeling, game development, and interactive web experiences where images are mapped onto 3D objects.

How to convert TIFF to GLB

Direct conversion from TIFF to GLB is not straightforward, as TIFF is a 2D image format and GLB is a 3D model format. The typical workflow involves:

  1. Importing the TIFF image into a 3D modeling software as a texture or material.
  2. Applying the texture to a 3D object (such as a plane or cube).
  3. Exporting the 3D scene or object as a GLB file.

Best software for TIFF to GLB conversion

Blender is a powerful, free, and open-source 3D creation suite that supports both TIFF image import and GLB export. Here’s how to use Blender for this conversion:

  1. Open Blender and create a new project.
  2. Import your TIFF image as a texture: Shading → Add → Image Texture, then open your TIFF file.
  3. Apply the texture to a 3D object (e.g., a plane).
  4. Export the object as a GLB file: File → Export → glTF 2.0 (.glb/.gltf).

Other software options include Adobe Dimension and Sketchfab (for online conversion and publishing), but Blender offers the most flexibility and is widely supported.

Tips for successful conversion

  • Ensure your TIFF image is properly sized and optimized before importing.
  • Check the material and texture settings in your 3D software to ensure the image appears correctly on the 3D object.
  • Preview the GLB file in a viewer (such as glTF Viewer) before final use.
