Convert OLL to another file type
To convert your OLL file to another format, you need OpenText Content Server or other Developer software.
Convert a file to OLL
To convert other file formats to the "Compiled Object Library" file type, you need software like OpenText Content Server or a similar tool.
About OLL files
The .OLL extension represents a dichotomy in file handling: it is either a proprietary system binary or a convertible litigation text file.
1. OpenText Content Server OScript Library (Most Common)
Approximately 84% of .OLL files are compiled object libraries used by OpenText Content Server (formerly Livelink). These are binary "OSpaces" containing compiled OScript code, SQL logic, or proprietary modules.
The Problem: These are system-level binaries. They are not "documents" and cannot be opened in Word or converted to PDF. Attempting to force-open them in a text editor usually reveals gibberish or a "PK" header if compressed.
The Solution: There is no user-facing converter. These files must be loaded directly into the Content Server environment by an administrator.
2. TrialDirector Object Load List (Convertible)
In the legal field, an .OLL file is a structured ASCII text file used by TrialDirector 360 (by IPRO, formerly inData) to organize case exhibits.
The Problem: While it is just text, the formatting is specific to TrialDirector, making it hard to read raw.
The Solution: Because this is a Load File, it can be easily converted. Users often convert these to CSV (Comma Separated Values) or XLSX to view the document list in Microsoft Excel.
Convert.Guru analyzes your OLL file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
If you want to convert OLL file to CSV, JSON, XML, YAML, YML, TOML, INI, CFG, CONF, DAT, DB or SQL, you can use OpenText Content Server or similar software from the "OScript Compiled Module" 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 OLL, try OpenText Content Server or another comparable tool in the "OScript Compiled Module" category.
The OLL 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 OLL converter.
