Extract text from X10 files
To convert your X10 file to another format, you need VDV-Schnittstelle or other Data software.
To convert other file formats to the "Public Transport Schedule" file type, you need software like VDV-Schnittstelle or a similar tool.
The .x10 file extension is primarily associated with the VDV 452 standard, a data exchange format defined by the VDV (Association of German Transport Companies). These files contain structured ASCII text describing public transport networks, including timetables, stop locations, and line schedules. While critical for interoperability between transport planning systems like IVU.suite or generic GIS tools, the raw data is notoriously difficult to interpret without specialized parsing software. A common problem is that .x10 files often look like messy text dumps to the uninitiated, lacking the column headers or formatting found in CSV or XLSX files.
Alternatively, a .x10 file may be source code written in the X10 programming language, a parallel computing language developed by IBM. These files are plain text but require the X10 compiler to execute. Because both formats are fundamentally text-based, the most pragmatic conversion strategy is to convert them to TXT to inspect the contents safely. For archiving or documentation, converting the code or data tables to PDF preserves the layout. If you need to analyze the VDV data, renaming the extension to CSV and importing it into Microsoft Excel with custom delimiters is a common workaround.
Convert.Guru analyzes your X10 file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
Users also converted JPG, PDF, NUM, RML and RESULT files.
If you want to convert X10 file to TMP, TEMP, CACHE, LOG, BAK, OLD, NEW, PART, DOWNLOAD, CRDOWNLOAD, LOCK or PID, you can use VDV-Schnittstelle or similar software from the "Transport Timetable Data" category. In the File menu, look for Save As… or Export….
To convert DEVICE, CACHE, SOCK, SYMLINK, PID, MOUNT, FIFO, LOG, PIPE, TMP, JUNCTION or TEMP files to X10, try VDV-Schnittstelle or another comparable tool in the "Transport Timetable Data" 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 X10 converter.
