What is STL Splitter Text to STL?
Text to STL is a free 3D text generator on STL Splitter. You type a word or a few lines, pick one of five fonts (Helvetiker Bold and Regular, Optimer Bold, Droid Sans Bold and Droid Serif Bold) and set the letter height, depth and spacing and the alignment. Negative spacing pulls letters together so a word prints as one piece without a plate.
You can put the text on a rectangular or rounded base plate with your own margin and thickness, and add a keychain ring: a tab on the left with a 4 mm hole that never cuts into a letter. The panel shows the size and triangle count, and you download an STL or 3MF. The page also explains which fonts stay strong at small sizes and where to add a filament change for contrasting letters.
Everything runs in your browser, with no account and no cost.
