About AXR files

An .AXR file primarily functions as a business process model archive exported by ADONIS, a business process management tool developed by the BOC Group. Alternatively, it serves as a password recovery project state file for Elcomsoft Advanced Archive Password Recovery, or a report file for the AXIS ERP system.

To open these files natively and view their original visual layouts, you must use the software that generated them. The major disadvantage of the .AXR format is its strict proprietary lock-in. You cannot open these files in web browsers or generic document readers. Sending an .AXR process model to a client means they must also possess an expensive, licensed copy of ADONIS to view it. Furthermore, Elcomsoft project files contain no readable document data at all - only the saved session states of dictionary or brute-force decryption attacks.

The best conversion targets for an ADONIS .AXR file are ZIP and XML. Under the hood, ADONIS packages its models using standard ZIP compression. By extracting the file, you gain access to the raw XML structure and associated image assets, though you will lose the proprietary software interface.

Because .AXR files belong to closed, highly specific ecosystems, standard online converters usually fail to process them. Often, only the original software can properly read the schema and export the data to universal formats like BPMN or PDF. If our analysis detects the supported underlying ZIP container, viewing or extracting the embedded data is still entirely possible.

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

Users also converted ADL, ZARGO and HZF files.
