About AFMACROS files

The .afmacros file stores recorded operations in Affinity Photo, a popular image editor by Serif. These files allow users to automate repetitive tasks like color grading, resizing, or layer adjustments. It is a highly proprietary, closed-source format. A major disadvantage is that .afmacros files are strictly locked to the Affinity ecosystem. You need a paid software license to use them, and they cannot be executed natively in web browsers or general operating systems. Users frequently look to convert .afmacros to ATN files to share workflows with Adobe Photoshop users. However, direct conversion is impossible because the files contain software-specific mathematical instructions rather than universal pixel data. This file format is exceptionally difficult to open or convert because only the original software can properly read or export the data. Standard online converters fail to process it. If our analysis detects a supported underlying or embedded format, viewing or conversion may still be possible.

Convert.Guru analyzes your AFMACROS file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
