Use a flat, non-reflective surface (like a table).
Place the provided A4/A3/US Letter sheet with QR tags on the surface.
Center the object(s) inside the dashed box, between the QR tags. You can rotate the object in any direction,
as long as it stays within the box.
Ensure the image is sharp and in focus with clean object boundaries.
Use soft, even (preferably natural) lighting to reduce shadows and reflections. Avoid flash for shiny or
transparent objects to prevent glare.
Hold the camera directly above the object(s), perpendicular to the sheet.
Make sure only the object(s) and sheet are visible in the frame. The reference sheet should be fully
visible (not cropped) in the photo.
Ensure any object does not obscure the QR tags.
Upload the original photo — don’t edit or add filters.
Supported formats: .png, .jpg/.jpeg, .heic.
Place the object(s) on the A3/A4/US Letter paper and inside the box.
Orientation of the exported mesh depends on position of top & bottom QR tags.
Ensure the object(s) does not overlap any QR tags or stretch out of the guide box.
Objects should not touch each other at any point. They should be separated with proper spacing in between.
Photo-to-Outline converts photos of real objects into 3D-printable meshes using QR reference sheets for accurate scaling.
Auto-crop feature now available for faster image processing.
Place your object on the printed QR sheet, take a photo from directly above, and upload it to get started.
