About BDIC files

A .BDIC file is a proprietary binary dictionary used by Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, and other Chromium-based browsers for real-time spell checking. Unlike standard DIC or AFF files used by LibreOffice, the .BDIC format is a compiled database designed for speed, meaning it cannot be opened or edited in a text editor like Notepad. Users often encounter these files when trying to modify their browser's spell-check list, merge dictionaries, or extract saved words, only to find unreadable binary code. To edit the contents or migrate data, you must convert the file to a plain text format (TXT) or decompiled Hunspell source (DIC).

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

Users also converted TXT, JSON, DB, CRX, VTT and WEBP files.
