Convert TMD to PDF Online — Open TextMaker Documents Anywhere

A .tmd file refuses to open unless SoftMaker TextMaker is installed, and that single requirement blocks the people you need to share it with. TextMaker is not as common as Word, so colleagues, clients, and reviewers often hit a wall. Converting the .tmd document to PDF produces a fixed file that opens, prints, and looks identical on any computer, phone, or browser — no SoftMaker software needed.

What Is a .TMD File?

A .tmd file is a word-processing document created by TextMaker, the word processor in the SoftMaker Office suite and the free FreeOffice package. It stores text, formatting, tables, and images in TextMaker's older native format. This format predates the newer .tmdx format that SoftMaker adopted later, and it opens reliably only in TextMaker itself. Word, LibreOffice Writer, and Google Docs do not read .tmd documents directly.

• Created by: SoftMaker TextMaker (SoftMaker Office and FreeOffice)
• Format type: Older native TextMaker document, later replaced by .tmdx
• Contents: Formatted text, tables, images, page layout
• Compatibility: Opens in TextMaker; not supported by Word or Google Docs

Who Needs TMD to PDF Conversion?

• FreeOffice users: People who wrote documents in the free SoftMaker suite and need to send them to recipients who use Word or no office suite at all
• Recipients without TextMaker: Anyone who received a .tmd file and has no SoftMaker software to open it
• Job seekers and applicants: Writers who built a resume or cover letter in TextMaker and must submit a PDF, the format employers expect
• Teams on mixed software: Offices where some staff use SoftMaker Office and others use Microsoft or Google tools
• Long-term archiving: Users preserving old TextMaker documents in a stable format that will still open years from now
• Print and publishing: Anyone who needs a layout that prints exactly the same on every printer and machine

TMD vs PDF — Key Differences

How TMD to PDF Conversion Works

The converter reads the .tmd document structure, interpreting the text, fonts, tables, images, and page layout that TextMaker saved. It then renders each page exactly as it would appear in TextMaker and writes the result as a PDF. Page breaks, margins, and formatting are preserved, so the PDF matches the original document. The output is a standard .pdf file that opens in any web browser, on any phone, or in any free PDF reader — with no TextMaker or SoftMaker software required.
