About FP files

The .FP file extension is a versatile container used across distinct industries, creating significant ambiguity for users. Most commonly (53%), it serves as a word processing document associated with SoftMaker TextMaker or ABBYY FineReader, containing formatted text, layout settings, and OCR data. In industrial sectors (11%), it functions as a PLC Project File for Panasonic FP Series controllers, managed by FPWIN Pro software. Other technical variations include FileMaker Pro databases (legacy versions), OpenGL fragment programs (text-based shader code), and game data archives for titles like Call of Duty.

This format fragmentation causes frequent 'access denied' errors, as a document viewer cannot open an industrial automation file. Users often need to convert .FP files to PDF for universal viewing, DOCX for editing text content, or TXT to inspect code-based variations like fragment programs.

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

Users also converted FP10, 1, FP3, XD, DAT, F, NP and LTX files.



The FP 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 FP converter.
