Extract text from F90 files
To convert your F90 file to another format, you need GNU Fortran or other Developer software.
To convert other file formats to the "Source Code" file type, you need software like GNU Fortran or a similar tool.
A .f90 file contains source code written in Fortran 90, a major update to the Fortran programming language optimized for scientific and numerical computing. Unlike its predecessors (like .F or .FOR), .f90 files utilize free-form source formatting, meaning code does not need to start in specific columns, and support modern features like dynamic memory allocation, modules, and array operations. These files are plain text, but to execute the logic contained within, they must be compiled into machine code using a compiler such as GNU Fortran or the Intel Fortran Compiler.
While .f90 files are human-readable, sharing them with non-developers or including them in documentation can be problematic. The raw text lacks formatting when opened in standard word processors, and the file cannot be "run" by double-clicking. Additionally, without a specialized editor like Visual Studio Code or Notepad++, syntax highlighting is lost, making the code harder to read. To overcome these limitations, users often convert .f90 files to PDF for finalized documentation and easy printing, HTML for displaying code on websites with preserved indentation, or TXT for universal compatibility across all operating systems.
Convert.Guru analyzes your F90 file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
Users also converted FOR, TXT, NCM, TSX, CS, ERL, F77 and C files.
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 F90 converter.
