Hi,

I guess that's impossible - TIF and BMP are twodimensional pixel-based graphic
file formats, STL is a 3D-format which describes surfaces by small triangles.
DXF is either a Micrografx-Designer file or generated by AutoCAD. The last one
might to transferable if it is threedimensional.

Best regards

Carsten Freyer

Dear RP list-
How can a drawing with a file extension of .tif, .bmp, or .dxf be converted
into .stl? And is one easier to convert than the other?

Thank you in advance,
Michelle Soltysik
