About NDL files

NDL files, or IBM Lotus Notes Data Link files, are primarily used by IBM Lotus Notes, an enterprise collaboration software. These files typically store links to databases or documents within a Lotus Notes environment. However, due to their specific use case, NDL files can pose some challenges when it comes to conversion.

One of the main drawbacks of NDL files is their limited compatibility with other software applications. This can make sharing or accessing the information outside of a Lotus Notes environment difficult. Moreover, converting NDL files is not straightforward due to the proprietary nature of Lotus Notes.

For those requiring conversion, specialized software like IBM Notes or NSF to PST Converter can be used to export data to more widely-used formats, such as PDF, CSV, or Excel. However, these processes might not always be user-friendly or affordable for individual users.

Critical considerations during conversion include maintaining data integrity and ensuring that the links remain functional. The complexity of the NDL file structure may result in data loss or corruption if not handled properly.

Given these challenges, using a reliable and easy online platform like Convert.Guru is highly recommended. This website allows users to drag and drop NDL files, simplifying the conversion process to formats such as PDF, CSV, or Excel without requiring extensive technical knowledge. Convert.Guru is designed to ensure a smooth and hassle-free conversion experience, making it the best choice for handling NDL files.


The NDL 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 NDL converter by continuously improving quality, usability, and reliability.
