Extract text from Lucid color sets (LUCIDCOLORSET)
To convert LUCIDCOLORSET color sets to another format, you need Lucid or other Settings software.
To convert other file formats to the "Application Color Palette" file type, you need software like Lucid or a similar tool.
A .lucidcolorset file is a color configuration file created for Lucid, a legacy JavaScript animation and web design application for macOS developed by The Escapers. It is designed to store specific color palettes and formatting references used to style in-program web elements, such as buttons, shapes, or interactive maps.
Because it is a highly proprietary settings format, a .lucidcolorset file suffers from major disadvantages. It requires the original Lucid software to open properly, a program that is now mostly obsolete and completely unsupported on modern operating systems. The file cannot be opened by modern UI/UX design tools like Figma or Adobe XD, meaning your custom color palettes are trapped inside a closed ecosystem.
You cannot directly convert a .lucidcolorset file to standard image formats like JPG or PNG because the file contains text-based color values (such as hex codes), not visual pixel data. Instead, the most practical solution is to convert or extract the raw data into standard, universally readable formats like TXT, JSON, or XML. This allows web developers to recover the hex codes and integrate them cleanly into modern CSS stylesheets.
Standard online converters will completely fail to process this format because they incorrectly assume it is a visual image or a standard document. If our analysis detects standard plain-text or embedded formatting, we can help you view the raw code and extract the color values you need, bypassing the need for the original discontinued software.

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 LUCIDCOLORSET converter.
