[Chimera-users] Question regarding 3D surface coordinates

[Elaine Meng]

Hi Chris,
Take a look at the format choices in File… Export a Scene, details and caveats here:
 
<http://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/export.html>

It includes OBJ (surfaces only), STL, and some others you might be interested in.
I hope this helps,
Elaine
