3D Models in Microsoft Office

My latest model of an Ocean City Beach Patrol lifeguard chair was created in Blender and exported as a GLB file. The GLB files can be imported into Microsoft Word, Excel, Powerpoint and many other Microsoft products.

Loading 3D models in Word

In Word, click “Insert” in the menu. Then click the black down arrow next to “3D Models”. Select “This Device…”

Browse for the GLB file you want to import.

After the file is loaded, you can rotate the part, scale the size, zoom in or out and even create some lighting effects.

If there is any interest, maybe I’ll do a video showing how to use the model in Microsoft Office products.

Update 3/14/2022: Microsoft Word now supports FBX, OBJ, PLY, 3MF and STL files
