About TPE files

A .TPE file can be several distinct formats. Most frequently, it is a Tepra Label Design File used by the King Jim Tepra label printing software to store text, graphics, and layout data for physical labels. Alternatively, it serves as a Tasker Project Export for the popular Android automation app Tasker, or a data collection file for PTS TracerPlus. Less commonly, it acts as an HMI project file for Weintek EasyBuilder Pro, a TopSpeed database table for SoftVelocity Clarion, or an ACH electronic funds transfer record via the Nacha network. The primary disadvantage of a .TPE file is its highly proprietary nature. A Tepra label file is completely useless outside of the specific printer software. It is not supported by standard graphic editors or web browsers. Tasker exports and EasyBuilder Pro projects are similarly locked to their respective software environments. Users typically need to convert these files to share label designs with non-users or to extract data from legacy databases. Converting a .TPE file depends entirely on its origin. For Tepra labels, the best conversion targets are PDF or PNG to preserve the visual layout for printing or sharing, though this usually must be done by using a virtual PDF printer from within the original software. Tasker files are essentially XML data; converting them to XML or TXT is best for viewing the automation code. These formats are closed, proprietary, and vary wildly in internal structure. Standard online converters fail to process them because they cannot parse the unique encoding of label software or obscure legacy databases. Just drag and drop your file to identify the format, view it, and convert it when possible. convert.guru will inspect the internal signature to determine exactly which type of .TPE file you have. If our analysis detects a supported underlying or embedded format, viewing or conversion may still be possible.

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

Users also converted CRS, VMT and ENG files.

The TPE 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 TPE converter.
