Convert a file to PPR

To convert other file formats to the "Project or Report File" file type, you need software like Pinnacle Studio or a similar tool.

About PPR files

The .ppr extension is a classic example of a "file collision," where one extension serves three completely different industries. Most users have one of three files:

Chase Paymentech Report: A financial data file used by Chase Merchant Services (formerly Paymentech) containing transaction logs, payroll data, or settlement batches. These are often proprietary text or binary files. Practical Constraint: You cannot open these in standard office software without the original reporting tool, though some can be viewed as raw text.
Pinnacle Studio Project: A video editing project created by Pinnacle Studio. Common Friction Point: This file contains no video. It is a small XML list referencing video clips on your hard drive. Users frequently try to convert this 50KB file to MP4 online, which fails because the actual video assets are missing. You must open it in Pinnacle Studio and use the "Export" function.
ProPresenter Project: A presentation bundle used by Renewed Vision ProPresenter for live events.

Best Conversion Targets:

For Chase Reports: Convert to CSV or XLSX (Excel) using the Chase reporting portal export features, or Print to PDF for archiving.
For Pinnacle/Video: Open in Pinnacle Studio and export to MP4 or MOV. Online converters cannot process these project files directly.

Convert.Guru analyzes your PPR file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.

Users also converted STU, PPJ and PHC files.
