Extract text from Painter weave libraries (WEAVELIBRARY)
To convert WEAVELIBRARY weave libraries to another format, you need Corel Painter or other Settings software.
To convert other file formats to the "Painter Asset Library" file type, you need software like Corel Painter or a similar tool.
The .weavelibrary file format is a proprietary data container used by Corel Painter to store collections of custom weave patterns. Digital artists use these files to apply realistic fabric and textile textures to their digital canvases. The format stores the mathematical parameters for warp and weft generation rather than flat raster images.
These libraries are exclusively created and managed by Corel Painter. There is no native support for this format in operating systems like Windows or macOS, meaning users cannot double-click the file to preview the textures.
The primary disadvantage of the .weavelibrary format is vendor lock-in. Because it is a closed, proprietary database, it requires an expensive software license to open. Standard image editors like Adobe Photoshop or web browsers cannot read or import these files. Users sharing textures often frustrate recipients who do not own the Corel software.
To share these textures outside of the Corel ecosystem, users typically want to convert the patterns into standard raster formats like PNG or JPG. However, extracting these textures requires applying the weave to a blank canvas within Corel Painter and exporting the result. The raw library structure and mathematical editability will be permanently lost during this process.
This file format is difficult to open or convert online because standard converters lack the proprietary rendering engine required to interpret the weave parameters. Only the original software can properly read or export the data. If our analysis detects supported underlying or embedded previews, partial viewing or extraction may still be possible.
Convert.Guru analyzes your WEAVELIBRARY file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.

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 WEAVELIBRARY converter.
