Convert a file to LCI

About LCI files

An .LCI file is primarily a digital exam answer script generated by the PEXA (Paperless EXamination Assessment) platform from Littlemore Innovation Labs. While these files function as secure containers for student responses during digital exams, the internal structure is often identical to a standard JFIF or JPG image. The proprietary extension serves as a security measure to prevent tampering or casual viewing outside the exam environment. Users typically encounter friction because standard image viewers like Microsoft Photos or Apple Preview do not recognize the .LCI extension, making the files appear corrupt or unreadable. To review, grade, or archive these scripts, the most practical workflow is converting them to standard JPG images or compiling multiple scripts into a PDF document. For immediate access, you can often simply rename the extension to jpg, though using a dedicated converter ensures the file headers are correctly rebuilt for universal compatibility.

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

Users also converted THUMB2, JP and UNKNOWN-2 files.
