What is PRC file?
The .PRC file extension has been around since the early days of eBook standards, first developed in 1999 when ebook readers were first gaining traction. This file extension was originally used by Mobipocket Reader, one of the first competing ebook readers, as well as DRM (Digital Rights Management) software. This file format is now used as a general purpose ebook format, meaning that it can store books, documents, newspapers and magazines. [ ⏩ ] PRC file extension
What is TXT file?
The TXT (Plain Text File) file extension is a generic extension commonly used for various types of plain text documents. It can also be referred to as a textfile or simply as a base text file. The TXT file type is relatively simple compared to other popular formats, such as .DOCX, .XLSX, and .PPTX, as it contains only raw, plain-text formatting and no embedded objects. It also follows ASCII coding standards, which makes it easy for users to view and edit the text in most text editing programs. [ ⏩ ] TXT file extension
Software, that you can use to convert
How to convert the file from PRC to TXT?
To successfully convert the PRC file to TXT, 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.PRC). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case TXT (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 TXT).
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. PRC to TXT. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.
Program for converting PRC files to TXT 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 TXT, while before this step we had the PRC file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new TXT file, or not.
