Improve mesh quality when converting 3D-PDF to GLTF

Aspose.3D Product Family

Hello,
I am currently using “Aspose.3D for .NET” to convert CAD files in “3D PDF format” to the “Gltf format”. This works very well, only small errors occur in the CAD model due to the conversion. Maybe the reason is that the mesh is compressed too much.
In the photos you can see the original CAD model on the one hand and on the other hand the model after conversion to Gltf format.

original_CAD_model.jpg (74.2 KB)

mesh_after_conversion.jpg (69.9 KB)

Unfortunately I have not found a way to improve the quality during the conversion?

This is my current code:

      System.Console.WriteLine("convert from '3d pdf' to 'gltf' ...");
      Aspose.ThreeD.License license = new Aspose.ThreeD.License();
      license.SetLicense("Aspose.3D.NET.lic");

      var scn = Scene.FromFile(args[0]);

      GltfSaveOptions opts = new GltfSaveOptions(FileContentType.Binary);
      opts.MaterialConverter = delegate (Material material)
      {
              PhongMaterial m = (PhongMaterial)material;

              return new PbrMaterial() { Albedo = new Vector3(m.DiffuseColor.x, m.DiffuseColor.y, m.DiffuseColor.z) };
      };

      scn.Save("output.glb", opts);

Thanks for any help.

Hello @asad.ali,

as we just saw in the “Issues Status” it says that THREEDNET-1276 is resolved. So were you able to fix the problem? Currently we couldn’t see any improvements on our end.

Thank you very much for your help.

The 3D PDF file does not contain normal data, so the generated GLTF also have no normal data.

Aspose.3D for .NET 22.11 will generate normal data if there’s no normal definition.

Perfect, the new version solves our problem! Thanks a lot for your support.
