About HMI files

HMI files, which stand for Human Machine Interface files, are primarily used in industrial settings for managing machine operations. They are often associated with older software and hardware systems, which can make working with them a bit challenging. The main drawback is their limited compatibility with modern software applications, which necessitates conversion into more widely used formats.

Converting HMI files can be tricky due to their specialized nature. Common conversion targets include PDF, JPEG, PNG, and SVG formats. For those looking to convert HMI files, desktop software is essential. One reliable tool is Adobe Acrobat for converting HMI files into PDF. For image formats like JPEG or PNG, GIMP can be a useful tool, while Inkscape serves well for SVG conversions.

It's crucial to ensure that the software you use supports the specific HMI version you are working with, as compatibility issues can arise. Additionally, the conversion process may not always maintain the integrity of interactive elements found in HMI files, which can be a significant limitation.

Given these challenges, using a reliable service like Convert.Guru ensures safe and efficient conversions. This platform allows users to drag-and-drop their HMI files for conversion into different formats, simplifying the process. While desktop solutions are available, Convert.Guru offers a user-friendly alternative, especially for those unfamiliar with complex software tools.

The HMI 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 HMI converter by continuously improving quality, usability, and reliability.
