Extract text from ZoomNotes planners (ZND)
To convert ZND planners to another format, you need Zinnia or other Page Layout software.
To convert other file formats to the "Digital Journal Document" file type, you need software like Zinnia or a similar tool.
The .ZND file extension primarily represents a proprietary digital journal file created by the Zinnia journaling app, or a notes document generated by the ZoomNotes app. These files store digital planner pages, handwriting strokes, embedded stickers, vector graphics, and text blocks, strictly designed for iOS and iPadOS environments.
Users typically need to convert .ZND files because they are tightly locked into their respective app ecosystems. If you want to share a planner with a Windows or Android user, or archive it outside of the Apple ecosystem, the raw .ZND format is practically useless. It is a closed format that requires specific paid subscriptions or app purchases to open natively.
The best conversion targets for a .ZND file are standard PDF documents or raster images like JPG and PNG. Converting to PDF preserves the visual layout of your planner for printing or sharing. However, you will permanently lose stroke-level editing capabilities, vector scalability, and app-specific interactive elements.
Because .ZND is a closed ecosystem format, standard online converters universally fail to process it. The file structure is not publicly documented, meaning only the original software can properly read or export the full data.
Despite this, convert.guru can still help. Just drag and drop your file to identify the format, view its internal structure, and convert it when possible. If our analysis detects a supported underlying or embedded format - such as standard images bundled inside the archive - viewing or extracting that content may still be possible.
Convert.Guru analyzes your ZND file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
Users also converted ZPG, ZOR and ZNC files.

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 ZND converter.
