Extract text from PlanMaker spreadsheet templates (PMVX)
To convert PMVX spreadsheet templates to another format, you need PlanMaker or other Spreadsheet software.
To convert other file formats to the "Template File" file type, you need software like PlanMaker or a similar tool.
The .pmvx file format is a proprietary spreadsheet template used by PlanMaker, a component of the SoftMaker Office suite. Users create these files to store pre-configured layouts, financial formulas, and formatting styles, allowing them to quickly generate new, uniform spreadsheets without starting from scratch.
While useful within the SoftMaker ecosystem, .pmvx files have significant disadvantages. They are a closed, proprietary format. If you send a .pmvx file to a colleague or client who uses Microsoft Excel or Google Workspace, they will not be able to open it. It requires downloading and installing SoftMaker software, which creates an unnecessary barrier to collaboration. Furthermore, standard web browsers cannot preview these files natively.
To solve these sharing problems, we recommend converting .pmvx to universally supported formats. Converting to XLTX or XLSX ensures full compatibility with modern spreadsheet applications like Microsoft Excel. If the template simply needs to be reviewed visually, converting to PDF is the best option to freeze the layout and typography. For raw data extraction, CSV is ideal, though it will discard all formatting, charts, and mathematical formulas.
Because .pmvx is a specialized template, standard online converters often fail to process it correctly. Often, only the original software can properly read or export the complex internal cell data and macros. If our analysis detects a supported underlying or embedded format, viewing or conversion may still be possible.
Convert.Guru analyzes your PMVX file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.

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 PMVX converter.
