About RIS files
RIS files are a type of bibliographic data format used for formatting references and bibliographies. RIS files are supported by many popular reference management software, such as EndNote, Refworks, and Zotero. They are also used by many academic journals to submit manuscripts. RIS files are text-based and can be opened and edited with any text editor.
RIS files can be converted to other formats, such as BibTeX, HTML, and CSV. There are several software programs available for free that can be used to convert RIS files, such as BibTeX, LibreOffice, and Pandoc. Additionally, many reference management software programs can also be used to convert RIS files. For example, EndNote can be used to convert RIS files to BibTeX, HTML, and CSV formats.
When converting RIS files, it is important to consider the type of data contained in the file, as some data may not be compatible with other formats. Additionally, some data may be lost during conversion, so it is important to make sure that all data is preserved. Additionally, some software programs may not support certain types of data, so it is important to make sure that the software being used is compatible with the RIS file.

The RIS 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 RIS converter.
