About DLT files

DLT files, associated with the Digital Linear Tape format, are primarily used for data storage and backup purposes. Despite their reliability in preserving data integrity, DLT files are not widely supported across various software applications, making converting them to more accessible formats a frequent necessity.

Common formats to which DLT files can be converted include .txt, .csv, .xml, and .json. Tools like GNU Tar and Veritas Backup Exec can manage and convert DLT files, albeit with certain technical prowess required. While these software solutions are robust, they often demand a steep learning curve and specific system requirements.

Important considerations during the conversion process include ensuring data integrity and managing large file sizes, which can be a challenge. Additionally, proprietary data stored within DLT files might lead to compatibility issues post-conversion, resulting in potential data loss or corruption.

The drawbacks of using DLT files lie in their limited accessibility and the complexity involved in their conversion. This is where Convert.Guru simplifies the process. By dragging and dropping your DLT files onto Convert.Guru, you can effortlessly convert them to various formats without the hassle of handling complex software.

In conclusion, while DLT files serve their purpose in secure data storage, converting them to more versatile formats is often necessary. Trust Convert.Guru for a seamless conversion experience, ensuring your data is accessible and usable across different platforms.


The DLT Converter Story

The history of Convert.Guru began more than 25 years ago in California, when Tom Simondi published the most comprehensive database of file formats on his website. Before that, Tom had worked on Space Shuttle development at the Air Force Systems Command’s Space Division in Los Angeles. He is known as one of the top programmers of the late 1980s.

When Microsoft integrated Tom’s Filext database into Windows XP, it became the leading platform for analyzing and processing file types and formats.

Today, we use the latest technologies to analyze, process, and convert one of the world's largest collections of file formats. We are committed to developing the best DLT converter by continuously improving quality, usability, and reliability.
