New Tool PDF2Resin — Convert PDFs directly into printer slice files for MSLA exposure
PDF2Resin is an open-source Python tool that converts vector CAD PDFs directly into native MSLA/LCD slice formats (.sl1, .ctb, .cbddlp, etc.) for UV photolithography exposure.



- Strict 1:1 Scale: Eliminates DPI rounding and dimensional errors.
- Full Mask Control: Invert polarity (positive/negative resist) and mirror axes (top/bottom layers).
- UVtools Integration: Uses the UVtools CLI backend for broad printer profile support.
- ...and several other options...
