Extract text from Web manga documents (WMGA)
To convert WMGA manga documents to another format, you need Manga Reader or other E-Book software.
To convert other file formats to the "Digital Comic Archive" file type, you need software like Manga Reader or a similar tool.
The .WMGA file is a Web Manga Document primarily utilized by Manga Reader applications to package, distribute, and display digital manga chapters. These files act as closed containers, grouping multiple high-resolution page images and reading metadata (like chapter titles and reading direction) into a single, cohesive package for offline reading.
The primary disadvantage of the .WMGA format is its proprietary nature. It is an obscure, restricted format designed specifically to lock users into a single reading ecosystem. You cannot open these files natively in web browsers, standard image viewers, or widespread e-book hardware like the Amazon Kindle. Furthermore, they occasionally utilize obfuscation or DRM to prevent the straightforward extraction of the underlying artwork, limiting how you can interact with the files you downloaded.
Most users need to convert .WMGA files to standard comic archive formats like CBZ or CBR, or universal document formats like PDF. Converting to these formats guarantees long-term accessibility and compatibility with standard comic library software like Calibre or ComicRack. During this conversion process, specialized application metadata (such as specific bookmark data) is typically discarded, but the essential raw image sequences are preserved.
Because this is a closed, proprietary format, standard online converters often fail to process it. Usually, only the original Manga Reader app can properly decrypt or read the data. Our system can inspect the file and show text or internal directory content. If our analysis detects a supported underlying or embedded format - like standard JPG or PNG files inside an unencrypted archive - viewing or conversion may still be seamlessly possible.
Convert.Guru analyzes your WMGA 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 WMGA converter.
