Extract text from Remark Office OMR files (RMK)
To convert RMK OMR files to another format, you need Remark Office OMR or other Data software.
To convert other file formats to the "Optical Mark Recognition" file type, you need software like Remark Office OMR or a similar tool.
The .RMK file extension is primarily associated with Remark Office OMR, a software used to process optical mark recognition data (like bubble sheet tests and surveys). These files are not simple spreadsheets; they are proprietary containers that link the raw data (bubbled answers) directly to the original scanned image files, allowing for verification of "exception" data like crossed-out marks or double-bubbles.
Because .RMK files are strictly proprietary to Gravic, they cannot be opened directly in Microsoft Excel, Notepad, or standard database viewers. This creates a significant limitation for users who receive an .RMK file but lack the licensed software (which is often expensive enterprise-grade tooling) to view it. To make this data usable, it must be "exported" rather than merely "converted." The standard workflow involves using the Remark Office OMR Data Center to export the content into accessible formats like XLSX (Excel), CSV (Comma Separated Values), SAV (SPSS), or PDF for archiving.
Note: In software development contexts, .RMK may occasionally refer to a GNU Make makefile (often used in legacy builds or specifically for CA-Clipper RMake). If your file is a script rather than data, try opening it with a text editor like Notepad++.
Convert.Guru analyzes your RMK 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 RMK converter.
