Extract text from PIT files
To convert your PIT file to another format, you need Samsung Odin or other System software.
To convert other file formats to the "Firmware Partition Map" file type, you need software like Samsung Odin or a similar tool.
The .pit file extension primarily identifies a Samsung Partition Information Table, a critical system map used by Samsung Odin and Heimdall to define the partition structure (System, Data, Boot, Recovery) on Android devices during firmware flashing. Because these are compiled binary files, they are completely unreadable to humans and incompatible with standard text editors. Flashing an incorrect or corrupted .pit file is a common cause of "hard bricking" a device, rendering it unusable. Users often need to convert or extract this binary data into readable TXT or JSON formats to verify partition sizes before executing a flash operation.
Alternatively, a .pit file may be a Polish Tax Declaration created by e-pity. These files are locked into specific tax year software versions, making them difficult to share or archive long-term. For these users, the ideal workflow is converting the proprietary data to PDF for universal viewing and printing. Rarely, .pit refers to a legacy PackIt archive from classic Macintosh systems, which requires conversion to ZIP for access on modern OSs like Windows 11 or macOS Sequoia.
Convert.Guru analyzes your PIT file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
Users also converted PLT, MD5, JPG, PDF, OFP, ZIP, JPEG, PSD, TXT, PNG and SDOCX files.
If you want to convert PIT file to PDF, ZIP, RAR, 7Z, TAR, GZ, BZ2, XZ, LZMA, CAB, ACE or ARJ, you can use Samsung Odin or similar software from the "Android Partition Mapping" category. In the File menu, look for Save As… or Export….
To convert XXE, 7Z, Z, PAK, LHA, DEB, UUE, TAR, LZH, ZIP, PKG or RAR files to PIT, try Samsung Odin or another comparable tool in the "Android Partition Mapping" category.
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 PIT converter.
