Make a 3D model from SVG artwork
SVG to STL gives filled vector shapes a uniform thickness. Convert lettering and strokes to filled outlines in your design editor before exporting the source SVG.
How to use it
Upload an SVG with filled shapes.
Set the drawing width, thickness and curve detail.
Create the STL, inspect the model and download.
Extrude clean vector artwork
Turn filled SVG artwork into a solid sign, badge or template. Starting with vector curves gives you smoother outlines than a pixel mask.
Convert text to outlines and turn required strokes into filled shapes before importing. Confirm holes, separate solids and scale in your slicer.
Prepare your SVG
Filled paths, polygons, plain rectangles, circles and ellipses work well. In your design app, convert text and line artwork to filled paths first.
Remove shadows, special effects and embedded pictures. Rounded rectangles also need to be converted to paths.
Get smoother-looking edges
The tool follows the vector shapes directly. Choose Finer curves if rounded edges look too angular.
Curves are still made from small flat faces in the STL, but they do not use the pixel grid of an uploaded PNG or JPG.
Keep genuine holes
Holes in a compound shape stay open through the model. A white shape placed on top of a black one is not a hole: both are filled artwork.
Create a real opening in your design app. Disconnected letters and symbols remain separate pieces without a backing plate.
Set the scale for printing
Width applies to the SVG drawing area, including empty margins. The model size shows the solid shape itself.
Import the STL as millimetres and check its dimensions in your slicer. Inspect small gaps, thin walls and separate pieces before choosing your print settings.
Frequently asked questions
Why is my SVG not accepted?
It may contain text, line artwork, effects or other content that needs simplifying. Convert the visible design to filled paths and try again.
Will colors create different heights?
No. All filled shapes use the same thickness.
Colors are not kept in the STL.
Can I print the result straight away?
Open it in your slicer first to confirm size, units and printable detail. The tool does not choose printer or material settings for you.
