ParaView provides functionality to export any scene set up with polygonal data (i.e without volume rendering). Currently X3D (ASCII as well as binary), VRML (Virtual Reality Modeling Language), and POV-Ray are supported. To export a scene, set up the scene in a 3D view. Only one view can be exported at a time. With the view to be exported active, choose File | Export.

Export option in the File menu can be used to export the scene set up in a 3D view

The file-open dialog will list the available types. The type is determined based on the extensions of the file written out:
