About BFX files
.BFX files typically store legacy fax documents created by the discontinued Cheyenne Bitware or BitFax software. A smaller percentage of these files are XML-based remote packages used by Bluebeam Revu. Historically, BitFax documents required MS-DOS or early Windows 95 utilities to open. Today, the fax variant of .BFX is a dead, proprietary raster image format. You cannot open it natively on Windows, macOS, or iOS. There is no web browser support. Users trying to archive old company records often find these files completely unreadable without specialized tools. Bluebeam packages also require expensive, specialized software to process the underlying XML data. To read a legacy .BFX fax, you must convert it to a modern format. For archiving, convert to PDF/A or TIFF. For quick web viewing, convert to JPG or PNG. Drag and drop your file here to analyze and convert it - free, online, and without installing software.

The BFX Converter Story
The history of Convert.Guru began over 25 years ago in California with Tom Simondi’s file-format database. A former contributor to Space Shuttle development and a software pioneer of the 1980s, Simondi established a trusted resource for file type analysis that was even referenced by Microsoft Windows XP. Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our BFX converter.
