Convert a file to UXF

To convert other file formats to the "UML Diagram" file type, you need software like UMLet or a similar tool.

About UXF files

A .UXF file is an XML-based Unified Modeling Language (UML) diagram created by UMLet, a popular open-source tool for fast diagramming. These files store visual layouts - such as class diagrams, sequence diagrams, and flowcharts - as plain text XML code, describing elements, coordinates, and relationships.

While the text-based nature of .UXF files makes them excellent for version control in systems like Git, they pose significant challenges for sharing and presentation. A .UXF file cannot be opened natively in web browsers, standard image viewers, or document editors like Microsoft Word. Recipients must install UMLet (which requires a Java Runtime Environment) or use the web-based UMLetino just to view the content. Furthermore, printing raw XML is useless.

To share your diagrams effectively, you should convert .UXF files based on your end goal:

For Documentation & Web: Convert to PNG or JPG to embed diagrams directly into wikis, emails, or websites.
For High-Quality Print & Zoom: Convert to PDF or SVG. These vector formats ensure lines and text remain sharp at any size, making them ideal for technical specifications and posters.
For Archiving: Use PDF/A to ensure the diagram remains viewable long-term without needing specific software versions.

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