Convert CL3 to TXT

Understanding cl3 and txt file formats

CL3 files are typically associated with the Canon CD-LabelPrint software, used for creating and storing disc label designs. These files contain layout information, images, and text for printing directly onto CDs or DVDs. On the other hand, TXT files are plain text documents that store unformatted text and are compatible with virtually all text editors and operating systems.

Why convert cl3 to txt?

Converting a CL3 file to a TXT file is useful if you want to extract and reuse the textual content from your disc label designs. This allows you to access, edit, or archive the text separately from the original design layout.

How to convert cl3 to txt

There is no direct, automated converter for CL3 to TXT due to the proprietary nature of the CL3 format. However, you can manually extract the text using the following method:

1. Open your CL3 file in Canon CD-LabelPrint.
2. Select the text elements you wish to extract.
3. Copy the text (Edit → Copy or Ctrl+C).
4. Open a text editor such as Notepad or Notepad++.
5. Paste the copied text (Edit → Paste or Ctrl+V).
6. Save the file as a .txt file (File → Save As and select Text Documents (*.txt)).
