How to convert PTS to HTML
- 1
Open your .pts file
Drag it onto the viewer above, or click "Open a PTS File". Files up to 200 MB open directly; the parse runs in a worker so the page stays responsive.
- 2
Pick Self-contained HTML in the Export menu
Click Export in the toolbar, then HTML (.html).
- 3
Download
The .html is written in the browser and saved straight to your downloads folder. No queue, no email, no watermark.
What survives the conversion
A file conversion is a translation, and formats do not carry the same things. Here is exactly what moves from PTS into HTML, and what does not.
| Geometry | Kept | Both formats store points, so the shape transfers directly. |
|---|---|---|
| Colors and materials | Kept | HTML carries per-vertex color, which is at least what PTS stores, so the colors come across. |
| Units and scale | Reduced | The model keeps its true proportions and scale inside the page, but the page has no measuring or dimension tools. To measure, export STEP, GLB as well, or open the original in the viewer. |
| Map coordinates | Reduced | HTML is written in local meters, centered on the data. OBJ, PLY, XYZ, DXF and DWG exports keep the map coordinates. |
| Viewing | Kept | The page opens in any modern browser, offline, with nothing to install: orbit, pan and zoom, fit to view and a ground grid. The model travels inside the page as a GLB, so the one file is all you send. |
What the HTML writer emits: A single .html file holding the data and everything needed to show it. A model or point cloud is embedded as a base64 GLB with a small three.js viewer: orbit, pan, zoom, fit to view and a ground grid. A drawing is embedded as SVG with pan, zoom and a layer list. A workbook becomes HTML tables, one tab per sheet, and a Word document becomes HTML text with its headings, lists, tables and pictures, with no script in the page at all. The page loads nothing from the network and runs no code from the source file.
The source: Text Point Cloud (PTS / PTX / XYZ) (.pts, .ptx, .xyz)
Leica PTS and PTX scans and XYZ point lists, with RGB or intensity when the file carries it, read in a stream and sampled evenly to the device’s point budget, so multi-gigabyte scans open too.
The target: Self-contained HTML (.html)
One web page that opens offline in any browser. Send it to anyone: there is no app to install and no account to create.
Opens in: Chrome, Edge, Safari, Firefox, on desktop, tablet and phone.
Your file never leaves your computer
Both the PTS parser and the HTML writer are JavaScript and WebAssembly running in your own browser tab. There is no upload step, no server-side conversion queue, and no copy of your file anywhere but your machine. That matters for drawings under NDA, for client work, and for anything you would not email to a stranger.

Frequently asked questions
▶Is this PTS to HTML converter free?
Yes. No signup, no watermark, no per-file limit and no paid tier. Innerscene.
▶Is my PTS file uploaded anywhere?
No. The file is read with the browser file API and converted in the same tab. Nothing is sent to a server unless you explicitly click Share, which is a separate, opt-in feature.
▶Will my colors and materials survive the HTML export?
HTML carries per-vertex color, which is at least what PTS stores, so the colors come across.
▶Will the HTML open at the right size?
The model keeps its true proportions and scale inside the page, but the page has no measuring or dimension tools. To measure, export STEP, GLB as well, or open the original in the viewer.
▶How large a PTS file can I convert?
Up to 200 MB, and the ceiling adapts to how much memory your device reports. The conversion runs on your own hardware, so a desktop with plenty of RAM will handle more than a phone.
▶Can I convert HTML back to PTS?
Not here. We read PTS and write HTML, but not the reverse. the universal 3D viewer
▶Which browsers does it work in?
Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari, on Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS and Android. No plugin and no extension.
