What is LDR file?
The LDR (LDraw Model File) file extension is a format used by LEGO Digital Designer, a LEGO program for the creation of 3D designs. It stores models using the built-in LDraw language, which is an open standard for its type of program. These models are created using pieces from sets of virtual LEGO bricks that come with LEGO Digital Designer. The LDR files are composed of instructions which specify the shape, position, texture and color of the digital LEGO pieces. [ ⏩ ] LDR file extension
What is GHO file?
The GHO file extension is associated with the Norton Ghost, which is a data backup and disk imaging software solution developed by Symantec Corporation. This software enables users to create full system backups to a disk or network drive, which are stored as single GHO files. GHO files can also be used to differnetiate these from other backup files such as GHS, GHX, and GHO. [ ⏩ ] GHO file extension
Software, that you can use to convert
How to convert the file from LDR to GHO?
To successfully convert the LDR file to GHO, you should install one of the applications from the list. After installing the software, open the program and select the file you want to convert (file-name.LDR). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case GHO (usually converters allow you to convert to several different formats, so check out their features - maybe one of the available formats will suit you more than GHO).
What is a file conversion?
A data conversion is normally an automated process to some extent. The effect of the operation of one program is automatically the input product of another application. If that does not happen we need to help the process a little bit and convert the file on our own, e.g. LDR to GHO. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.
Program for converting LDR files to GHO files is a kind of a "binary code translator" compensating for the differences in the code or translating it in such a way so that another application could use it. For us, as users, the visible change will be only another file extension. (After converting the file, it will be the extension GHO, while before this step we had the LDR file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new GHO file, or not.
