Make 3D text online
Turn any word into a 3D model — pick a font, extrude it, round the edges and choose a finish, all with a live studio-lit preview. Export a web-ready GLB or a printable STL. Free, private, and nothing is uploaded.
Capabilities
What you can make
- Type any text (multi-line supported) and watch it become an extruded 3D model in real time.
- Choose from a range of built-in sans, serif and monospace fonts — or upload your own .ttf and it’s converted in your browser.
- Dial in size, extrusion depth, curve smoothness and rounded bevel edges with live sliders.
- Style the material — pick a color and a metalness/roughness look, or one-tap Matte, Plastic, Metal and Gold presets.
- Studio-lit preview you can orbit, so you see exactly how the letters catch the light before exporting.
- Export a web-ready GLB or a solid, printable STL — 100% in your browser, nothing uploaded, no watermark.
Process
How it works
- Type your textEnter your word or phrase and pick a font — the 3D preview updates as you type.
- Shape & style itAdjust depth, bevel and size, then choose a color and material finish (matte, plastic, metal or gold).
- Export GLB or STLDownload a GLB for the web and AR, or an STL ready to slice and 3D print.
Notes
Good to know
- Text is extruded flat then beveled — it’s perfect for logos, signs and titles, not for organic 3D lettering that needs sculpting.
- Very long text at high smoothness and bevel segments produces a heavy mesh; lower the smoothness if the preview slows down.
- STL is geometry only — color and material are dropped (they’re kept in the GLB). For printing, the mesh itself is what matters.
- Uploaded fonts are converted with opentype in your browser; unusual or heavily-hinted fonts may need a standard .ttf to parse cleanly.
- Emoji and complex scripts depend on the chosen font’s glyph coverage — the built-in fonts cover Latin characters.
FAQ
Questions, answered
Is the 3D text generator free?
Yes — creating and exporting 3D text is completely free, with no account, no watermark and no file-size limit beyond your device’s memory.
Can I 3D print the text?
Yes. Export STL and load it straight into your slicer. Add some depth (and a small bevel) so the letters have thickness to print. For connected signs, keep letters overlapping or on a base.
Can I use my own font?
Yes. Click “Upload a .ttf font” and your font is parsed locally with opentype and used for the 3D text — the file never leaves your browser.
What’s the difference between the GLB and STL export?
GLB keeps your color and material and is ideal for the web, three.js, model-viewer and AR. STL is geometry-only and is the standard for 3D printing and slicers.
Are my text and fonts uploaded anywhere?
No. Everything — text, font parsing, geometry and export — runs entirely in your browser. Nothing is sent to a server.
