Adobe just brought more advanced 3D printing features to Photoshop.
The new features come in a software update, and include both new design tools and more options for 3D printing, Adobe says in a blog post. Going forward, Photoshop now supports a handful of new 3D printers and 3D print services, and can read and write in a broader range of 3D file formats.

- Support for additional 3D file formats including VRML, U3D, PLY, and IGES
- Streamlined 3D painting experience

The update is the third in a set of new and enhanced 3D printing features in Photoshop CC in 6 months, since Adobe first announced 3D printing support in January.
