The .LRF file extension is used by the Sony Portable Reader System (PRS) to store electronic files in a format designed primarily for displaying text on mobile and handheld devices. Specifically, this type of file contains special formatting compatible with the PRS, which is used to create and edit electronic books in the Digital Book XML language. The content inside an LRF file will usually include text, images, graphics, and hyperlinks.

Other related file formats are .LIT, .RTF, .PDF, and .EPUB. These all contain differently formatted documents than the Sony PRS and are more suitable for desktop or laptop computers.
About LRF Files
In order to open and read a.LRF file you must have a compatible device, such as the Sony Reader device, installed on your computer or mobile device. Many third-party ebook reading applications such as Adobe Digital Editions also support.LRF files. The use of.LRF files is now somewhat rare because the ebook market has shifted over to other languages; for example, it is more common to find files in the MobiPocket, Kindle or ePub format.

After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .LRF) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .LRF extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .LRF file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .LRF extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .LRF extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .LRF file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .LRF file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .LRF file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .LRF file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .LRF file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
