Output to vector and/or lines/outline renderings

[Turner]

Hi all,
Sorry, I know this has been discussed but a million hits come up in a search & I’m not finding what I’m looking for.

Primarily - I’d love to find a vector exporter, like Vectorstyle was to Carrara, for anyone who might remember that…

If not - what’s the best way to get “technical drawing” style output, or, really, lines/outlines ?

I could always bring it into Illustrator to convert if needed.

thanks

You can either use the Freestyle vector output function within Blender or (what I use) the .svg output script found in this thread:

SVG output script

Hi, here is a script I’ve been playing with for a while: the idea is to get some quick vector output from Blender to feed Inkscape. It is not meant to be a NPR solution -as Freestyle will be- but you can still do some basic tricks. And it is pretty useful for simple shapes and so… I also tried to add a few abstract and geometric stuff into the mix. Script will export current viewport -think a screen capture application- to a SVG file. Works with meshes and curves. I suggest you to open the svg …

Thankjs Safetyman! Wow, never knew blender had it built-in. I’ll install & try it out!
