(...) Thanks for the encouragement! Multiple meshes in a single 3DS or ASE file is now supported. I came across a nasty bug in the 3DS export from 3dsmax that took me a whole day to straighten out. It turs out that if any of the mesh objects (...) (20 years ago, 26-Feb-05, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Your best bet to get a quick result would probably be to look in some 3D graphics libraries for OpenGL and find working code to get a TT glyph out into a mesh model. Exporting a flat mesh model to LDraw format yourself is not very difficult, (...) (20 years ago, 26-Feb-05, to lugnet.cad.dev)

Does anyone know of a utility to convert TT font glyphs to LDraw DATs? I would be interested in looking at writing such a beast, if it hasn't already been done. I'm looking at this to be able to create LDraw representations of custom stickers. And (...) (20 years ago, 26-Feb-05, to lugnet.cad.dev)
