Extract text from NetMeeting whiteboard files (NMW)
To convert NMW whiteboards to another format, you need Microsoft NetMeeting or other Data software.
To convert other file formats to the "Legacy Whiteboard File" file type, you need software like Microsoft NetMeeting or a similar tool.
The .NMW file is an obsolete data file created by Microsoft NetMeeting, a discontinued collaborative conferencing client for Windows. These files store graphical data, shapes, and text drawn during a shared digital whiteboard session.
Today, the .NMW format is heavily outdated and proprietary. It is not supported by modern web browsers, image viewers, or current operating systems. To open it natively, users often must configure a legacy virtual machine running Windows XP. Because the internal structure is closed and undocumented, standard online converters usually fail to process it.
Users typically need to convert .NMW files to standard image formats like JPG or PNG, or document formats like PDF, in order to archive old meeting notes without relying on obsolete software. Just drag and drop your file to identify the format, view it, and convert it when possible. This file format is difficult to open or convert because only the original software can properly render the vector and raster data. However, convert.guru can still identify the file format, inspect the file, and show text or internal content. If our analysis detects a supported underlying or embedded format, viewing or conversion may still be possible.
Convert.Guru analyzes your NMW file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
Users also converted WHT, PTX and SES files.

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 NMW converter.
