About MO files

MO files are compiled binary files used by GNU gettext to store translations. They are often used to store translations for software applications, websites, and other digital content. MO files are not human-readable and require special software to view, edit, or convert them.

The most common way to convert MO files is to use the GNU gettext msgfmt utility. This utility can convert MO files to other file formats, such as PO, JSON, and XLIFF. It can also convert MO files to other binary formats, such as DLL, RES, and MOF.

Another way to convert MO files is to use a PO editor. PO editors are specialized software programs designed to work with PO and MO files. They can be used to convert MO files to other file formats, such as PO, JSON, and XLIFF.

It is important to note that converting MO files can be difficult and time-consuming. MO files are binary files, which means they are not human-readable. This makes it difficult to understand the content of the file and to make changes to it. Additionally, MO files are often large and complex, which can make conversion difficult.

For these reasons, it is often easier and faster to use a free and easy online website such as Convert.Guru to convert MO files. Convert.Guru can quickly and easily convert MO files to other file formats, such as PO, JSON, and XLIFF.


The MO Converter Story

The history of Convert.Guru began more than 25 years ago in California, when Tom Simondi published the most comprehensive database of file formats on his website. Before that, Tom had worked on Space Shuttle development at the Air Force Systems Command’s Space Division in Los Angeles. He is known as one of the top programmers of the late 1980s.

When Microsoft integrated Tom’s Filext database into Windows XP, it became the leading platform for analyzing and processing file types and formats.

Today, we use the latest technologies to analyze, process, and convert one of the world's largest collections of file formats. We are committed to developing the best MO converter by continuously improving quality, usability, and reliability.
