## Check dimensions and geometry before fabrication

Maker utilities prepare models and dimensions for another application or machine. File conversion is only part of the workflow: scale, orientation and geometry can affect whether the result is usable.

## How to choose your next step

Preview dimensions, surface orientation and missing geometry in the destination application. Keep a known-size reference when a format does not encode units clearly.

## Common questions about maker tools

### Can a model look correct and still fail to print?

Yes. Open surfaces, thin walls, overlapping geometry and unsupported features can cause problems that are not obvious from one view.

### Does converting a mesh add detail?

No. A conversion does not recover geometry that was absent from the original. Check whether materials, textures and scene information are supported by the destination format.
