This page gathers the different file formats that can be imported or exported from FreeCAD. Most of these file formats are implemented by a specific module. This module doesn't need to be loaded in order to import or export to that format, but must be loaded to display the corresponding preferences page.
This page lists the various file formats that FreeCAD can import and export. For completeness the FreeCAD native format is included in the list.
