GLB files are the binary equivalent of the GLTF 3D file format developed and maintained by the Khronos Group. GLB files are designed to be an open and expandable 3D format that can store 3D graphics and their assets, such as textures, animations, and more.
The content of a GLB file is binary and enables highly efficient storage and transmission of 3D data. This efficiency of size, along with its ability to store all the associated assets in the same file, has made GLB files one of the preferred formats for use within 3D web content and other applications.
Due to their open format, GLB files are widely supported by 3D editing software. The format has gained traction amongst videogame developers and other 3D artists as a primary means of exchanging 3D data between different applications.
GLB Converter Capabilities
When converting 3D model or mesh files using our GLB converter, we will attempt to convert colour materials into a suitable format for use in the converted file.

A JPG file is a compressed and highly efficient image file format whose aim is to store photographic-quality images using a fraction of the storage space compared to other lossy and non-lossy image compression methods available at the time.
The compression used by JPG encoders is "lossy", meaning image colours that are not perceptible to the human eye are discarded during the compression process. The removal of this colour data greatly reduces the size of the final JPG file with no discernible loss in quality.
Due to their compact and high-quality format, JPG files are one of the primary image formats used by websites, digital and phone/tablet cameras, and more. This widespread support means JPG files can be edited within most popular image editing software.
