Information about AI and STL file formats
| 🔸 File format | AI | STL |
| 🔸 Full name | AI - Adobe Illustrator Artwork | Stereolithography File Format |
| 🔸 File extension | .ai | .stl |
| 🔸 MIME type | application/post-script | model/stl, model/x.stl-ascii, model/x.stl-binary |
| 🔸 Developed by | Adobe Systems | 3D Systems |
| 🔸 Type of format | Vector image format | |
| 🔸 Description | Adobe Illustrator Artwork (AI) is a proprietary file format developed by Adobe Systems to represent single-page vector-based drawings in EPS or PDF formats. Adobe Illustrator uses the .ai filename extension. The AI file format was originally a native format called PGF. PDF compatibility is achieved by embedding a complete copy of the PGF data within the saved PDF format. | STL is a file format native to the stereolithography CAD software created by 3D Systems. Many other software packages support this file format. It is widely used for rapid prototyping, 3D printing, and computer-aided manufacturing. STL files describe only the surface geometry of a three-dimensional object without representing color, texture, or other common CAD model attributes. The STL format specifies both ASCII and binary representations. Binary files are more common since they are more compact. |
| 🔸 Technical details | The same "dual path" approach as for PGF is used when saving EPS-compatible files in recent versions of Illustrator. Early versions of the AI file format are true EPS files with a restricted, compact syntax, with additional semantics represented by Illustrator-specific DSC comments that conform to DSC's Open Structuring Conventions. | An STL file describes a raw, unstructured triangulated surface by the unit normal and vertices (ordered by the right-hand rule) of the triangles using a three-dimensional Cartesian coordinate system. All STL coordinates were required to be positive numbers in the original specification, but this restriction is no longer enforced, and negative coordinates are commonly encountered in STL files today. As a result, STL files contain no scale information, and the units are arbitrary. |
