    I am a new learner of DELFTship.When exporting the hull as the *.stl files which I had modelled with delftship ,I found that the files were messy codes .I mean that the texts in the STL files were not written in ASCII code ,not in english, not in other language I can read. So could someone kind-hearted can explain the reason for this abnormal phenomenon or give me some advise to deal with it?
    addintional:
    My operating system is windows 7.
    thanks a lot .

    Delftship shows you two options when exporting .stl files: Binary and ASCII. Just pick the one you need ;)
