Convert a file to JTP

To convert other file formats to the "Note-taking Template" file type, you need software like MetaMoJi Note or a similar tool.


About JTP files

The .JTP file is a proprietary note-taking template file primarily used by MetaMoJi Note and the legacy Microsoft Windows Journal. These files store pre-defined page layouts, background graphics, grid lines, and margin settings for digital handwriting and note-taking applications. The JournalTouch system also utilizes this extension for internal template structuring.

The main disadvantage of the .JTP format is its heavily closed, proprietary nature. Files created in MetaMoJi are completely incompatible with those created in Windows Journal, despite sharing the same extension. Furthermore, Microsoft officially deprecated Windows Journal in 2016 due to severe security vulnerabilities, making it difficult and potentially risky to open older .JTP files on modern operating systems. The format is locked to specific subscription or legacy desktop ecosystems and is entirely unsupported by standard web browsers.

Users typically need to convert .JTP files to PDF, JPG, or PNG to share the blank templates or layouts with colleagues who do not have the native applications installed. Converting to PDF preserves the layout for printing but strips away application-specific handwriting recognition features.

Because the file stores complex internal application settings rather than standard graphics, generic online converters universally fail to process it. This file format is difficult to open or convert because often only the original software can properly read or export the internal data. If our analysis detects a supported underlying or embedded format - such as standard XML or embedded raster images - viewing or conversion may still be possible.

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

Users also converted JNT, JPEG, AVIF, JFIF, JPG, PDF, JT, TXT, PNG, AAE, SPV, APKG and EXE files.
