OBJ files

OBJ is a plain-text mesh format with optional texture coordinates and normals; materials and textures live in a companion .mtl file. It opens almost everywhere, from Blender to 3D printing software.

Full name: Wavefront OBJ
Type: Triangle mesh
Used in: Blender, Maya, 3ds Max, Cinema 4D, ZBrush, most slicers
Strength: Opens in nearly every 3D program and keeps textures through its .mtl file.
Limits: No animation; large files because it is text.
