Substance 3D Viewer (Beta) is a desktop app that enables fast viewing and editing of 3D files. You can import dozens of file formats.
Viewer natively stores data as USD (Universal Scene Description) data, but saves as a modified format called ASD (Adobe Scene Description). This enables the use of full USD but also saves some Adobe-specific data.

The following formats are supported directly in the Photoshop (beta) app:
- ASD, GLB, USD, USDZ, USDA, USDC, GLTF, FBX, OBJ, PLY, STL
