Web-to-Print with GLB Files

The printformer Editor offers a real-time 3D view, enabling users to visualize and design simultaneously. In addition to the x3d 3D format, printformer now also supports GLB files. The GLB format is an efficient solution to enhance product presentation and elevate the personalization of print products to a new level.

Your Benefits

  • Realistic 3D View

  • Intuitive and Fast Design

  • Optimized for Web Applications

Realistic Product Representation

GLB files enable printed products to be viewed in 3D, providing customers with a realistic impression of the final product. This feature is especially useful for personalizing packaging and items like mugs, T-shirts, or 3D cards. With the rissc printformer 3D preview, your customers can instantly see how their design appears on the product from various angles.

Interactive Product Design

The GLB format enables interactive product visualization, showing all adjustments in real-time. Its high compatibility with various platforms and devices, including AR applications, makes the GLB format exceptionally flexible and accessible. Therefore, the GLB format is a valuable tool for enhancing customer loyalty and maximizing sales.

Reduced Loading Times

GLB files are more compact compared to other 3D formats like FBX or OBJ and are optimized for web applications. They can be efficiently integrated into online print portals without slowing down loading times, which ensures a smooth user experience – especially on mobile devices, which are increasingly used for online purchases.

Consistent Quality

GLB files support Physically Based Rendering (PBR). Material properties (such as light reflections, textures, and surface quality) are realistically displayed, which accurately reflects product perception and helps users make informed purchasing decisions.

New Personalization Options

With GLB files, customers can customize their designs not only in 2D but also in 3D, for example, by adding text or images to a 3D model. These files are particularly helpful in the packaging and gift article industry for optimizing personalization.
