Extract text from INTUS graph mask archives (IGMA)
To convert IGMA archives to another format, you need INTUS RemoteConf or other Compressed software.
To convert other file formats to the "Terminal GUI Archive" file type, you need software like INTUS RemoteConf or a similar tool.
The .IGMA file extension stands for INTUS Graph Mask Archive. It is exclusively used by INTUS timecard management, data collection, and access control terminals to store a bundle of Graphical User Interfaces (GUIs) or "graph masks". These archives dictate the visual layout displayed on the terminal's physical screen.
Originally, these files were managed and deployed using PCS Systemtechnik software, such as the now-discontinued INTUS RemoteConf. Because they are designed specifically for proprietary corporate hardware, you cannot simply double-click them to view the contents on a standard PC or Mac.
The primary disadvantage of the .IGMA format is its completely closed ecosystem. It locks UI designs into a proprietary bundle, making it frustrating if you need to review the interface assets, update the branding, or extract a specific graphic without access to the original management software. You are effectively locked out of your own data.
Ideally, users want to convert or extract .IGMA files into standard image formats like PNG or JPG, or unpack them into a standard ZIP archive to access the individual graphic elements.
Because .IGMA is an obscure, proprietary format, standard online converters fail to process it. However, the files are fundamentally compressed using the Deflate algorithm.
Convert.Guru analyzes your IGMA file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
If you want to convert IGMA file to JPG, PDF, PNG, GIF, BMP, TIFF, TIF, WEBP, ICO, CUR, PSD or PSB, you can use INTUS RemoteConf or similar software from the "Terminal GUI Mask Archive" category. In the File menu, look for Save As… or Export….
To convert RAW, PNG, AI, NEF, PSB, DNG, SVG, GIF, EPS, JPG, ARW or PDF files to IGMA, try INTUS RemoteConf or another comparable tool in the "Terminal GUI Mask Archive" category.
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 IGMA converter.
