Frequently asked questions
Find answers to common questions about Marathon OS CAD Viewer.
What is a CAD viewer?
A CAD viewer lets you open and preview 2D/3D CAD files without editing them—useful for quick reviews and sharing.
Can I open STEP and IGES files online?
Yes—upload your .step/.stp or .igs/.iges file to preview it directly in your browser.
Do I need to install any software?
No. Marathon OS CAD Viewer is browser-based—no downloads required.
Which file formats are supported?
STEP/STP, IGES/IGS, STL, OBJ, PLY, OFF, BREP.
Is this CAD viewer free?
Yes—this page is presented as a Free Online CAD Viewer, with usage constraints like an upload size limit (up to 300 MB per file).
What is the max file size?
Up to 300 MB per upload.
Will my file stay private?
Files stay private, are encrypted, and are automatically deleted after 24 hours; see the Privacy Policy for details.
Why does my model look broken (holes/missing faces)?
Some CAD exchange formats (especially surface-based files like IGES) may import with gaps. Try converting to STEP or re-exporting with healed/stitched surfaces.
Can I convert my file to another format?
Yes—use the 3D File Converter at /tools/3d-cad-file-converter.
Does it work on Mac / Windows?
Yes—because it runs in your browser (no installation needed), it works on Mac and Windows with a modern browser.
