Convert PDB to TXT

.pdb

ICE Book Reader

PDB files got their .sfw extension from the company that developed the proprietary file format – Seattle FilmWorks. The PDB file format was prolific in the early 1990s with mobile devices like Nokia Navigator that fell under the Palmtop category. It supported a wide variety of documents like eBook, Word documents, images, maps, and spreadsheets. A drawback of the PDB format is its inability to work across multiple platforms; a similar type of program that creates a PDB file is required on a device before the content can be accessed.

PDB files can adjust the dimensions of the document’s content to fit the size of the device output. However, several features sported by new eBook formats are lacking in PDB format files. PDB files also support a peculiar data encryption system that helps reduce the file size relative to other formats. The compressible file size remains the essential factor that favoured the PDB format as the default format used with Palmtop devices of the 1990s – which mostly had low storage capacity.

.txt

The organization of texts in rows applies to the TXT file format. Such text files oppose binaries, which have data that is interpreted as a text. For example images or sounds that are converted to coded forms. Raw text files can possess texts presented in formatted or in ways that are not formatted. The text files are elementary and are used for storing data in most cases.

Raw text files are not highly formatted, and this means they meet accepted formats by the system terminal and the basic text editor. These files are taken and used universally since any text-based program can read them. This is because it uses a standard form of encoding, making it easy for different language users to utilize the files. The ASCII- specific text files can be used in place of each other and can be read using Unix, Mac, and Windows. UTF-8 differs from ASCII, and this is attributed to Byte order mark differences, but it remains the most character set. Its compatibility with ASCII is backward.
