Extract text from Translation and IPTV files (ITD)
To convert ITD Translation files to another format, you need SDL Trados Studio or other Data software.
To convert other file formats to the "Translation Memory File" file type, you need software like SDL Trados Studio or a similar tool.
The .itd file extension is most commonly an SDL Trados Translation Project File. It stores bilingual text segments used by translators to localize software, documents, and websites. These files are typically managed by SDL Trados Studio, a leading computer-assisted translation (CAT) tool. Alternatively, .itd files act as configuration files or channel lists for IPTV systems, generated by software like IPTVTools or MyTV Online2.
The main disadvantage of the .itd translation format is its proprietary structure. Opening or editing these files usually requires an expensive, active subscription to SDL Trados Studio. You cannot natively read them in standard word processors like Microsoft Word or open-source editors. The IPTV configurations face similar limits, remaining useless outside their specific middleware environments.
Users frequently need to convert .itd translation files to standard formats like TMX (Translation Memory eXchange), XLIFF, or CSV for review by clients who do not own Trados software. For the IPTV variants, converting to standard M3U playlists is the most common goal.
Because .itd is a closed format, standard online converters usually fail to process it. Often, only the original software can properly read or export the structured data. Our analysis engine can inspect the file, attempt to extract readable text segments from translation projects, or identify if the file is actually a hidden ZIP archive (such as an incomplete Apple iTunes download).
Convert.Guru analyzes your ITD file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
Users also converted TXE, SDLPPX and SDLXLIFF 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 ITD converter.
