Convert IGS to 3DXML
| File Extension | IGS |
| Full Name | IGES ASCII CAD Format |
The .igs file extension stands for IGES drawing file. This is a special type of 2D/3D vector graphic file which is based on the Initial Graphics Exchange Specification. This file is not vendor specific and thus allows more software to put it as their standard output format for the 2D and 3D models.
| File Extension | 3DXML |
| Full Name | Dassault Systems Universal 3D XML Format |
3DXML file stores data in XML format (short for Extensible Markup Language). 3DXML format is used for storing structured data of 3D objects. The format is proprietary to Dassalt Systemes, however the format specification is available to the public under open-source license.
What is file format conversion?
File format conversion is the process of transforming a file from one format (referred to as "IGS") to another (referred to as "3DXML"). This may be necessary for various reasons. For example, IGS file may be incompatible with the software or device we want to use to open or edit it. In such cases, converting the file from format IGS to format 3DXML becomes essential.
So, how can we perform IGS to 3DXML file conversion? Fortunately, there are many tools and computer programs available that enable file format conversion. These tools work by reading the data from the file in format IGS and transforming it into format 3DXML. This allows the preservation of the original information contained in the file, even after changing its format. Below you will find a list of IGS to 3DXML converters.

How to convert the IGS file to 3DXML?
If you have already downloaded one of the converters and installed it on your computer, you can proceed to the appropriate conversion process of IGS to 3DXML. Handling all the programs is usually very intuitive and is based on the same pattern of conduct. We will briefly discuss a few steps that you always need to go through while changing the format of the IGS file:
- Please indicate on your computer the source file IGS, the format of which you are going to change
- Load the IGS file to the application
- Select the output format of the 3DXML file (the one that we want to achieve)
- Select the location to save the output file 3DXML on the disk (the place where the program will save the converted file)
- Confirm conversion
- Wait for a moment
- Enjoy the converted 3DXML file that can be found in the location selected in step 4

I cannot see the file extensions. What should I do?
File extensions are not normally displayed to users. To change this, go to Control Panel, select Appearance and Personalization and Folder Options. Next, select the View and find the option "Hide extensions for known file types". The option should be deselected (cleared) and confirmed with OK.
