Convert LML to another file type
To convert LML Layouts to another format, you need Slice-O-Matic or other Data software.
Convert a file to LML
To convert other file formats to the "Scientific Data Project File" file type, you need software like Slice-O-Matic or a similar tool.
About LML files
The .LML file extension is highly fragmented and used by several unrelated scientific and industrial applications. Most commonly, it acts as an anatomical landmark list file for TomoVision Slice-O-Matic or a data analysis project for Vernier Logger Pro. It is also utilized for XML-based layout definitions in ZebraDesigner Pro and scientific data plots in KDE LabPlot. Because multiple programs use the .LML extension for entirely different purposes, users face significant challenges. These files are typically proprietary and tied to expensive or highly specific software. You cannot open them natively in web browsers or standard office suites. Users usually need to convert .LML files to CSV, TXT, or XML to share data with colleagues or import it into standard spreadsheet software. Converting an .LML file is difficult because the exact data structure depends on which program created it. A Vernier Logger Pro .LML is actually a compressed GZIP archive, while a ZebraDesigner .LML is plain-text XML. Standard online converters routinely fail because they cannot guess the correct internal structure. Often, only the original software can properly read or export the data. However, convert.guru can still identify the file format, inspect the file, and show text or internal content. Just drag and drop your file to see what it is and convert it if supported. If our analysis detects a supported underlying or embedded format, viewing or conversion may still be possible.
Convert.Guru analyzes your LML file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
If you want to convert LML file to CSV, JSON, XML, YAML, YML, TOML, INI, CFG, CONF, DAT, DB or SQL, you can use Slice-O-Matic or similar software from the "Scientific Data & Layout Storage" category. In the File menu, look for Save As… or Export….
To convert DBF, XML, SQLITE, XLSX, SQL, TSV, ACCDB, YAML, MDB, CSV, ODS or JSON files to LML, try Slice-O-Matic or another comparable tool in the "Scientific Data & Layout Storage" category.
The LML Converter Story
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 LML converter.
