About EBS files

The .EBS file extension is a fragmented format used by several unrelated software systems. In most environments, an .EBS file operates as an Absolute Database file created by ComponentAce for Delphi and C++ Builder applications. In other workflows, it acts as a project file for EbSynth, an AI-driven video stylization tool. Lesser-known variants include E-Prime psychological experiment scripts, Cabal Online game archives containing DDS textures, and EBSILON Professional power plant simulation models based on the Microsoft Compound format.

The primary disadvantage of the .EBS format is absolute vendor lock-in. Because these files are tightly coupled to specific proprietary tools, interoperability is essentially zero. An Absolute Database .EBS file cannot be queried directly with standard SQL clients like DBeaver. EbSynth project files are merely text-based configurations - useless without the original source assets. Game archives and simulation models restrict access to internal data, requiring specialized unpackers or costly licenses just to view the contents.

To make this data usable elsewhere, conversion or extraction is required. For database .EBS files, converting the tables to CSV, JSON, or SQL dumps is essential for modern web analysis. For game archives, extracting the internal textures allows conversion to PNG or WebP for image editing.

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

Users also converted EBSX, EBSDOC, EPS, EBSI, EBS3, EBF, PNG, PZF, XPR, NPF and EFS files.

The EBS 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 EBS converter.
