- Select your preferred font to match your design needs
- Pick an output format (PNG image, STL file for 3D printing, or animated GIF)
- Customize colors for both text and background
- Adjust the 3D depth using the slider
- Apply additional effects like rotation, shadows, or reflections if desired
- Click "Generate 3D Text" to create your design
- Download your creations in your chosen format
Available 3D Text Styles
Our 3D Text Generator offers four distinct styles to choose from, each providing a unique visual effect:
Basic 3D
A simple yet effective 3D style with clean extrusion that works well for most applications. This style maintains excellent readability while adding a subtle three-dimensional effect to your text.
Extruded
Creates a deep extrusion effect with multiple layers, giving your text a dramatic depth. This style is particularly effective for bold, attention-grabbing headlines and titles.
Beveled
Features smooth beveled edges with highlights that create a refined, professional appearance. The beveled style works exceptionally well for corporate logos, business presentations, and formal designs.
Metallic
Adds a shiny metallic finish with reflective properties to your text. This premium style is perfect for creating luxury brands, game titles, movie posters, and other designs that require a high-end, sophisticated look.

Output Formats Explained
Our PNG output creates a high-quality image with a transparent background, making it perfect for web use, graphic design, and social media. PNG files maintain crisp edges and can be easily imported into design software like Photoshop, Illustrator, or Canva.
Best for: Web graphics, social media posts, digital design projects, and any application where you need transparency.
STL (STereoLithography) is a file format native to 3D printing. Choosing this option generates a true three-dimensional model of your text that can be 3D printed or imported into 3D modeling software like Blender, Maya, or 3D Max.
Best for: 3D printing projects, physical signage, product prototyping, and professional 3D modeling.
Our animated GIF output creates eye-catching 3D text with rotation or other dynamic effects. These animations can add visual interest to your websites, presentations, and social media posts.
Best for: Email signatures, social media posts, website banners, digital presentations, and any platform that supports GIF animations.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, all 3D text created with our generator is free for both personal and commercial use. There are no royalties or attribution requirements, making it perfect for business logos, marketing materials, and other commercial applications.
While there's no strict character limit, we recommend keeping your text under 20 characters for the best visual results, especially for STL models. Longer text may be rendered at a smaller size to fit within the output dimensions, potentially reducing the 3D effect's visibility and detail.
To 3D print your STL files:
- Download the STL file from our generator
- Import it into slicing software like Cura, PrusaSlicer, or Simplify3D
- Adjust the print settings as needed (size, infill, support structures)
- Export the G-code for your specific 3D printer
- Print using your 3D printer or send to a 3D printing service
For best results, we recommend setting the model to at least 30mm in height for adequate detail.
Tips for Great 3D Text
- Use short, bold phrases - One to three words typically work best for 3D effects
- Choose contrasting colors - High contrast between text and background improves visibility
- Experiment with depth - Different depth settings create dramatically different effects
- Add shadows - Shadows enhance the 3D effect and improve readability
- Try different fonts - Thicker fonts typically create more pronounced 3D effects
