Extract text from WEB files
To convert your WEB file to another format, you need Xara Web Designer or other Web software.
To convert other file formats to the "Website Layout Project" file type, you need software like Xara Web Designer or a similar tool.
The .WEB file extension poses a unique challenge because it typically represents one of two completely different formats, creating confusion for users. Primarily, it is a proprietary project file created by Xara Web Designer (previously MAGIX). These files contain vector graphics, bitmaps, text, and layout configurations for websites. The critical limitation is that a .WEB file is a source file, not a website; it cannot be opened in browsers like Chrome or Edge, nor can it be viewed without purchasing specific Xara software. To share these designs with clients or developers who lack the software, users must convert them to PDF for proofing or export them to standard HTML.
Secondly, a significant volume (approx. 48%) of .WEB files are actually WebM video containers or WebP images with truncated or mislabeled extensions, often resulting from browser download errors. These files fail to open in standard media players because the OS does not recognize the extension. For these files, the best workflow is converting the video data to MP4 or the image data to JPG or PNG to ensure universal compatibility with mobile devices and desktop media players like VLC Media Player.
Convert.Guru analyzes your WEB 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 WEB converter.
