Extract text from RMR files
To convert your RMR file to another format, you need ResumeMaker or other Page Layout software.
To convert other file formats to the "Resume Template Document" file type, you need software like ResumeMaker or a similar tool.
The .RMR file extension signifies a proprietary resume document created by Individual Software's ResumeMaker, a long-running application designed to simplify CV creation through templates and guided entry. Unlike standard word processing files, .RMR files encapsulate structured data - such as work history, contact details, and education - mapped dynamically to specific visual themes and layouts.
The frustrating part for users with .RMR files is the "locked-in" nature of the format. You cannot simply double-click an .RMR file to open it in Microsoft Word or Google Docs; doing so usually results in a screen full of garbled binary code. Furthermore, sending an .RMR file directly to a recruiter or HR portal is effectively useless, as their Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) cannot parse the proprietary encoding. Users often find themselves stuck with an old resume file but no access to the original ResumeMaker software (or the CD-ROM it came on), rendering their career history inaccessible.
To reclaim your data, the best approach is converting the file to a universally compatible standard. For immediate use in job applications, converting to PDF is ideal as it freezes the layout and ensures the recipient sees exactly what you intended. If you need to update your experience or fix a typo, converting to DOCX (Word) or RTF (Rich Text Format) is necessary to make the document editable again. While PDF retains visual fidelity, conversion to DOCX may require some minor formatting adjustments due to the translation from ResumeMaker's rigid templates to Word's flow-based layout.

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 RMR converter.
