Research direction

The request asks for bidirectional conversions between SCAD and STL, STEP, and 3MF; EXE and ZIP or RAR; and Markdown and PDF. Start by checking the project’s existing conversion support and how it handles each source and target format. Done means the requested conversions work in both directions; the issue does not identify specific files or tests.
