Extract text from website projects (WD3)
To convert WD3 projects to another format, you need Maxprog Web Dumper or other Web software.
To convert other file formats to the "Offline Website Archive" file type, you need software like Maxprog Web Dumper or a similar tool.
The .WD3 file extension is primarily associated with downloaded website projects created by Maxprog Web Dumper and cache or asset archive files used by PC SOFT WinDev. It may also function as a website design file for legacy software like Xara Web Designer 3. These files are highly proprietary and specialized. A .WD3 file is rarely a single document; it typically acts as a container or index holding HTML structure, images, or metadata required to render offline websites or compile applications.
The major disadvantage of the .WD3 format is its extreme fragmentation and lack of interoperability. Because it serves entirely different purposes depending on the software that generated it - from GNU Wget metadata logs to WatchDog weather station data - it cannot be reliably opened by standard web browsers or text editors. Users typically want to convert these files into standard HTML or extract embedded JPG and PNG assets, but extracting the contents often requires the exact original program.
Standard online converters almost universally fail to process .WD3 files due to their undocumented, closed-source nature. Our tool will inspect the binary structure, reveal readable text strings or internal web assets, and if we detect a supported embedded archive format, we may help you view or extract the contents directly.
Convert.Guru analyzes your WD3 file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
Users also converted CW, TDK, ML20 and WD2 files.
If you want to convert WD3 file to TXT, RTF, DOC, DOCX, ODT, PAGES, TEX, LATEX, MD, MARKDOWN, LOG or NFO, you can use Maxprog Web Dumper or similar software from the "Offline Website Project & Cache" 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 WD3, try Maxprog Web Dumper or another comparable tool in the "Offline Website Project & Cache" 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 WD3 converter.
