When working on 3D modeling and design projects, it's common to come across PDO files, which are specific to Pepakura Designer software. However, if you need to use the 3D model in other design tools or software, you might need to convert the PDO file to an OBJ file. In this article, we'll guide you through the process of saving a PDO as an OBJ.

Step 1: Open the PDO file in Pepakura Designer. If you don't have Pepakura Designer, you'll need to install it on your computer.

Step 2: Once the PDO file is open, go to the File menu and select 'Export as OBJ.' This will prompt you to choose a location on your computer to save the OBJ file.

Step 3: Select the location where you want to save the OBJ file and click 'Save.' Pepakura Designer will then convert the PDO file to an OBJ file and save it to the specified location.

Step 4: Once the conversion is complete, you can open the OBJ file in your preferred 3D modeling or design software, such as Blender, Maya, 3ds Max, or others. You can now use the 3D model in your projects and make any necessary adjustments or edits.

It's important to note that while saving a PDO as an OBJ is relatively straightforward, there may be some limitations or loss of data during the conversion process. It's always a good idea to check the OBJ file in your 3D design software to ensure that everything has been transferred accurately.

In conclusion, converting a PDO file to an OBJ file allows you to use the 3D model in different design software and tools. By following the steps outlined in this article, you can easily save a PDO as an OBJ and continue working on your 3D modeling and design projects with ease.
