How to extract text from your GRA file

  1. Click the "Select File" button above, and choose your GRA file.
  2. You’ll see a preview, if available.
  3. Click the "Convert file to..." button to extract text information.

Convert GRA to another file type

To convert GRA Graphs to another format, you need NI Multisim or other Data software.

Convert a file to GRA

To convert other file formats to the "Engineering Simulation File" file type, you need software like NI Multisim or a similar tool.


About GRA files

The .GRA file extension is primarily associated with Circuit Simulation Graph files created by NI Multisim (formerly Electronics Workbench). These files store visual representations of electronic circuit simulations, voltage nodes, and oscilloscope output graphs. A secondary use for .GRA files is as Building Automation Graphic files used by Trane Insight software, which utilizes a Microsoft Compound file structure to store HVAC system schematics. Other structural analysis programs like Graitec Advance Design, BOSS-FEM, and CYPECAD also use .GRA for results and graphics. The main disadvantage of .GRA files is their highly proprietary nature. They are siloed within expensive, specialized engineering suites. Without an active license for NI Multisim or Trane Insight, viewing these graphs or schematics is virtually impossible. Standard image viewers and web browsers cannot natively render them. Users typically need to convert these files to standard image or document formats like PDF, PNG, or SVG for inclusion in engineering reports or presentations. However, exporting directly from the original software is often required because the visual data is generated from raw simulation math. Because .GRA is a closed, proprietary format, standard online converters often fail to process it. Only the original software can properly read or export the complex simulation data. If our analysis detects a supported underlying or embedded format (such as OLE streams in Microsoft Compound), viewing or partial conversion may still be possible.

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

Users also converted PRZ, MS14 and SDX files.


FAQ

If you want to convert GRA file to CSV, JSON, XML, YAML, YML, TOML, INI, CFG, CONF, DAT, DB or SQL, you can use NI Multisim or similar software from the "Engineering Simulation Data Graphics" category. In the File menu, look for Save As… or Export….

To convert DBF, XML, SQLITE, XLSX, SQL, TSV, ACCDB, YAML, MDB, CSV, ODS or JSON files to GRA, try NI Multisim or another comparable tool in the "Engineering Simulation Data Graphics" category.



The GRA 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 GRA converter.
