Extract text from GROMACS inputs or test reports (TPR)
To convert TPR inputs or reports to another format, you need GROMACS or other Data software.
To convert other file formats to the "Simulation Topology File" file type, you need software like GROMACS or a similar tool.
The .TPR file extension is most commonly known as a GROMACS Molecular Dynamics Run Input file. It contains the atomic coordinates, velocities, topologies, and parameters required to execute a molecular simulation in GROMACS. Alternatively, .TPR files are generated as Test Project Reports by Rohde & Schwarz testing tools, railway track design reports by Trimble GEDO, or vehicle diagnostic reports by Volkswagen Group ODIS software.
The major disadvantage of the .TPR format is its highly specialized, often proprietary nature. GROMACS .TPR files are portable binary files; they are efficient for high-performance computing clusters but completely unreadable in standard text editors. Rohde-Schwarz reports are technically XML files, but they are frequently encrypted. Project files, like those from TMPGEnc, only contain configuration settings and pointers, not the actual media files.
Standard online converters usually fail with .TPR files because they lack the specific industrial or scientific engines required to interpret the data. You cannot easily convert a molecular topology into a JPG or PDF. To read a GROMACS file, users must rely on the command-line tool gmx dump to extract the binary data into plain text. For Trimble or Volkswagen reports, the original software is required to export data to accessible formats like CSV or standard text.
However, you do not need to stay stuck guessing the file's origin. Just drag and drop your file onto convert.guru to identify the format, view its internal structure, and convert it when possible. If our system detects an unencrypted XML structure or underlying plain text, we can extract it instantly, bypassing the need for heavy, specialized software installations.
Convert.Guru analyzes your TPR file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
Users also converted QTP, TRP, PDF, RPT, QRP, XVG, XTC, RTP, PDB and GRO files.
If you want to convert TPR file to PDB, GRO, MP4, AVI, MOV, WMV, FLV, WEBM, MKV, M4V, 3GP or OGV, you can use GROMACS or similar software from the "Simulation Data and Project Reports" category. In the File menu, look for Save As… or Export….
To convert MTS, MOV, RMVB, DIVX, RM, H264, TS, WMV, VOB, MP4, XVID or AVI files to TPR, try GROMACS or another comparable tool in the "Simulation Data and Project Reports" category.
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 TPR converter.
