Extract text from TrueView job tickets (TVJ)
To convert TVJ job tickets to another format, you need basICColor TrueView or other Settings software.
To convert other file formats to the "Color Management Job Ticket" file type, you need software like basICColor TrueView or a similar tool.
A .tvj file is a TrueView Job Ticket used by basICColor color management software. It stores calibration profiles, workflow rules, and color configurations for specific printing or display jobs.
This format is highly restrictive. It is a closed, proprietary file that requires an active installation of basICColor software to open and execute. This creates immediate bottlenecks when you need to share job parameters or calibration targets with external print vendors, pre-press operators, or clients who do not use this exact software suite.
To share this data practically, users need to extract the information into standard, readable formats. Converting the internal data to TXT or XML allows anyone to view the raw parameters and color values. Alternatively, exporting the job summary to a PDF provides a stable, universally readable document for client approval.
Standard online converters fail to process .tvj files because they lack the specific parsing logic required for basICColor job tickets. Often, only the original software can properly read or export the structured data. If our analysis detects a supported underlying text or XML format, viewing or partial conversion of the color parameters may still be possible.
Convert.Guru analyzes your TVJ file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
If you want to convert TVJ file to TXT, RTF, DOC, DOCX, ODT, PAGES, TEX, LATEX, MD, MARKDOWN, LOG or NFO, you can use basICColor TrueView or similar software from the "Color Management Job Configuration" category. In the File menu, look for Save As… or Export….
To convert PDF, DOC, ASC, TODO, NFO, MEMO, README, DOCX, JPG, TXT, NOTE or RTF files to TVJ, try basICColor TrueView or another comparable tool in the "Color Management Job Configuration" 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 TVJ converter.
