*   in the @link data Data Structures Page @endlink. In short, this means the model data
*   should use a right-handed coordinate systems, face winding should be counter-clockwise
*   and the UV coordinate origin is assumed to be in the upper left. If your input data
*   uses different conventions, have a look at the last parameter.
* @param pFormatId ID string to specify to which format you want to export to. Use 
* aiGetExportFormatCount() / aiGetExportFormatDescription() to learn which export formats are available.
* @param pFileName Output file to write
* @param pIO custom IO implementation to be used. Use this if you use your own storage methods.
*   If none is supplied, a default implementation using standard file IO is used. Note that
*   #aiExportSceneToBlob is provided as convenience function to export to memory buffers.
* @param pPreprocessing Accepts any choice of the #aiPostProcessing enumerated
*   flags, but in reality only a subset of them makes sense here. Specifying
*   'preprocessing' flags is useful if the input scene does not conform to 
*   Assimp's default conventions as specified in the @link data Data Structures Page @endlink. 
*   In short, this means the geometry data should use a right-handed coordinate systems, face 
*   winding should be counter-clockwise and the UV coordinate origin is assumed to be in
*   the upper left. The #aiProcess_MakeLeftHanded, #aiProcess_FlipUVs and 
*   #aiProcess_FlipWindingOrder flags are used in the import side to allow users
*   to have those defaults automatically adapted to their conventions. Specifying those flags
*   for exporting has the opposite effect, respectively. Some other of the
*   #aiPostProcessSteps enumerated values may be useful as well, but you'll need
*   to try out what their effect on the exported file is. Many formats impose
*   their own restrictions on the structure of the geometry stored therein,
*   so some preprocessing may have little or no effect at all, or may be
*   redundant as exporters would apply them anyhow. A good example 
*   is triangulation - whilst you can enforce it by specifying
*   the #aiProcess_Triangulate flag, most export formats support only
*   triangulate data so they would run the step anyway.
